this is very velatura design.... the combination of carbon n pvd bezel is a killer... its bigger than its case... but at 50mm it doesnt look that big actually! the case is well curve to fit your hand....


26mm lug is a winner.... u can replace the bracelet with rubber and rugged strap... a tedsu kevlar maybe......

not every1 will like this.... but our fren q certainly like it.... very attractive price here in malaysia... with a very bargain discount...

Yen,

Thanks for the full info aka more poison, but this one after having thought that night without much sleep as intended to get it on Sat. So plan for price assault ie reduce somemore, then Morning going out of house, just checked strap collection suddenly, found no 26mm rubber, silicon nor leather max is 24mm, remember I told you strap is an extra large not easily available. So cannot try on with strap so hold for a while. Unlike Sinn U1, at a remarkable 22mm or Fortis at 20mm both sizes stocked to the max.

Yesterday went hunting but didnt find any but today will go directly to source at PJ this time, to grill the boss one shrewed uncle for best price as there I still have some money left from some trades. Will update unless you wanna get one too, then can double grill and squeeze. I have learnt when buying new these days to squeeze for lots of discount as thier margins are good, you wont even imagine if not most dealersl cannot drive S Class, ha ha.

Till the next hunt,
Q

Kind of reminds me of a Concord C1 with that bezel combo.
