Expect to be impressed
Went to a jewelry store today to kill time looking at watches and never had any intention of making a purchase. Almost made it out and then saw this watch hiding from me. As soon as it hit my hand and I turned it into the light it was all over, had to be mine. Purchased it for what I believed to be a reasonable price for an incredible watch. Normally I’m an automatic/mechanical guy but the other eco drives I have are just too accurate and easy to keep in service so I’m happy to have another. The case on this watch is absolutely stunning. Beautiful brushed finish with some very intriguing angles. Bezel action is crisp, tactile, audible and lines up perfect. Anti reflective sapphire coating, big plus. The lume, oh my gosh, the lume. It’s so bright that on an overcast day you can see it glowing like tritium. I’m gonna say it’s better lume than any skx I own. The bracelet hast the greatest quick adjust I’ve ever seen. I’d say on par with Rolex as far as ease of use and good looks when extended. Certainly better than the extension on a grand seiko. May sound like silly comparisons but this clasp is really that good. Solid beefy bracelet with solid end links. Tricky to size but once it’s sized all you need is the quick adjust. This is my first GMT function in a watch so I can’t tell you much about it other than it works as a GMT. The handset is very clean and crisp, the GMT hand noticeable but not distracting. I would say if you are in the fence...get off it and just buy this watch. I spent just barely north of $400 and I’m not upset at the cost for what I’ve got.
