Title: Re: Today, I found something...
Post by: sshark on December 20, 2011, 10:09:49 AM: The case size is 37.8mm. small by today standard but fit nicely as a dress watch. i also find the bit smaller than other GS and it is not a screw in crown.

Post by: terrenceterrence on December 21, 2011, 02:11:33 AM: Love the textured dial. Can't wait to see it in person. So how much is the declared value? Did the customs slap a tax on it?

Still waiting for Dennis to fish out his long forgotten watch.

Post by: sshark on December 21, 2011, 08:07:15 PM: Thank you for kind words and wishes.

I bought it for its white Ti case and bracelet and champagne color dial. I have 1 too many black dial. The embossed GS gives the 3D feel which is different from my usual 2D dial.
