Well, first and foremost, I have to say that Dan Henry knows something about presentation. In Russian Doll fashion, you have a watch, in a travel roll, in a tube inside a foam lined cardboard box. It’s quite the thing to behold... Attachment DeletedAs far as the watch is concerned, I am impressed. The case back is made to make you stare and the crowns are aggressive in the cross hatching and the grip. Case is a mix of high polish and brushing that seems to give it some reflective facets to catch the eye. At 40mm it is very comfortable, even for its 13mm thickness.Attachment DeletedAttachment Deleted The soft rubber tropic strap is supple against the skin and makes wearing the watch a joy. The anti reflective coating makes reading the boldly marked dial very easy. All-in-all, I’m very pleased with this watch so far... |

And for those wondering why no dial pics... I don’t have any image posting site yet (I refuse to pay to store my photos) Attachment DeletedAttachment DeletedAnd as far as the lume, it is bright, not sure of duration, but it also seems that the minute track has been lumed to some extent.

Nice. You will have the Captain drooling. Lol, yes! But he will need the 44mm.  I just don’t find it checks off all the right boxes... Attachment Deleted |
