Thanks for the kind words guys.

I was a bit worried about the large crown digging into my wrists, but it turned out fine because of the watch case design which is thick enough.

As for the box, I'll have a hard time finding storage space for it.  :laugh:

Hi Scott,
Thanks. I'll make sure to bring it along next time we meet.

Hi David,
This is the spec for the Big Pilot from Tourby. This watch shares the same movement spec that's being proposed for the project watch.
Major difference is the Big Pilot look as compared to the Marine Watch look.

Danny,

Congratulation, nice watch.

I really salute those that dare to send watch to Malaysia, the chances your watch stolen by Custom / KLIA is so high.., do you need to buy insurance for your purchase?  :D

Congras. I like watch with a clear dial and a reliable workhorse. Also, unique looking packaging box.
