I loved the one they released last year, but the Reverse Panda, and 42mm put me off.... this year is Panda + 40mm... too hard to pass up... and i needed an AUTO Chrono in the lineup.

Khronos 1,339 Posted December 27, 2018 The goddamn bastard got the adress wrong...again.. Lovely mate, this one's been on the top spot of my list ever since I read about it on WUS. I just wish they made the date disk in the same color as the dial.. They got it great on the black version. BTW, what's your wrist size? Would you say that the watch is a bit on the thick side or is it just right? Congrats, wear it in good health! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll happily take a shot next to a few more iconic watches to show relative thickness. One thing to note is that the caseback has a nice Rounded Taper which allows the wrist to arch without binding. Hamilton did a good job with the shape. I passed on the 42mm Black for so long and was really excited when the Panda in 40mm was announced. I wish they had gone with the black date wheel myself instead of trying to match. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khronos 1,339 Posted December 28, 2018 Black date would be perfect, true to the original design. I think it would be great with no date too.. It looks surprisingly big for a 40mm watch. Thanks for your reply! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
