haven't posted too much about this lil' beauty, so here we go-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
anyways, coupla years ago when I first read about it on ABTW & Hodinkee...I thought to myself 'I wonder how it would look on a bracelet?'
fast forward a few months and I had a chance to try it on at an AD and left not particularly impressed..higher end piece on a nato just didn't seem right..even if its a high end nato
that, the 'plain-ness' of it and that I was jone-sing for a Zenith El Primero lit no fire
somehow, it kept popping up on blogs and what not, I reached out to my personal watch enabler dealer..
a week later, he got me a used piece for a great price...bastard.
stark & clean dial
nicely bevel-ed date window cutout
applied indices are always nice = white gold I think?
minimal dial writing
matte-ish in certain lights
super glossy in others
pairing well with the ceramic bezel
i fitted in on a 24mm HR curved end rubber strap, shaving it off with a paring knife
the solid buckle looks great
i generally like crown guards..this works well without
which leads me to the kickass movement
5 day PR with a gold rotor
its running at +1/day I think..?
so purrty..and the strap fits so well!
green lume works well with this fella
i never say never..but this is probably a long term keeper
