well,i picked up the hammy about a month ago,followed by the visodate 2 days back.i must say im a happy camper!
initial thoughts about the visodate is that its a beautiful watch.very classical and clean look.overall look of it is sweet! i cant take my eyes off it! it wears about 40mm which is comfortable and not too heavy.i love the domed sapphire crystal and the stick numerals on the dial..i'll insert more pics when i have the chance to.here's a wristshot of it
a backview
another view of the dial!
followed by my hamilton slim 42mm automatic.what i love about this watch is that its reaaaly thin,and there's a certain coherence in the design of the watch itself.the design reminds me of NYC's chrysler building,i guess its because of the clean lines of the watch itself.it has a silver sunray finished dial and yes,without seconds' hand.it doesnt bother me though,it kinda adds a bit of character and 'nostalgia' to the watch.i love it and this watch is highly recommended.oh ya it comes with two sizes,one of which is smaller than 42mm..i think its 40mm..anyway at the price offered,its a steal!
here's a pic or two of it(1 month old pic btw) :
a nice ETA 2892 movement
well made buckle
