Just in 5227g from Josh! (pic heavy)

This is one of the coolest parts of the watch. No spring bar tool to remove the strap. Just your fingers. Works great!!

I know it makes us losers but this is one of my favourite things about it too, lol, it's a feature of the gen which is really useful so to have it on the rep is great!!

 

Thanks for your pics, I'm gonna place my order!

It's something about those curves, so subtle, so simple, so sexy. It does NOT look and feel like an old granpa watch at all! Pics don't do it enough justice. I should get back to work :), but here's couple more pics.

 

One last thing i'll add is about the white dial. It's a nice off white colour, looks very slick. I think i prefer this over the ivory dial as well for the SS version.

 

I was sold to get this, ever since DC had the review of the Rose Gold one.. but then I saw the 2015 edition of gen 5227G-010 with the black dial and went crazy,

so now I will wait until the black dial with the right DW comes out to purchase it.

 

Thanks for the pics, we can't get enough.. :)

 

Yeah man, that's one worth waiting for!

tswatch is on the 'trusted dealers list'. Green light buddy. I've used Toro, Andrew (Trusty), Tim (WF), I even used Josh (PC) currently on the probationary list. Recieved nice watches from all of them, knock on wood!!

So OP, where in Canada are you and where did it pass through customs? I'm in eastern Ontario and very curious as I've been lucky enough to have everything glide through without notice.

Interesting... if you get tired of that one, let me know. No customs issues going across Ontario. :)
