The "MY NEW WATCH" thread....

Looks great G... Congrats.

 

How's the finish?

 

Finish is very good - it's a classy looking watch. The strap could be better - as could the lume, but at the price that's just nitpicking...

I saw this on eBay and, for £50, couldn't resist it.

The dial is very nicely printed, complete with raised hour markers and hands which, if this were a PO rep, would be slightly too short, but are otherwise nice and shiny. ;) The markers have almost non-existent lume, while the hands lume almost well enough to tell the time.

The 42mm case and 20mm bracelet are well made, extra links easily removed thanks to the screw pins. The bezel has a good click to its half minute divisions.

The movement is the biggest worry. I've heard praise of a second hand with a nice smooth and didn't realise until now how rough one could be. This is pretty jerky, but then to my untutored eye the movement looks pretty nasty. Note the plastic movement holder.

We'll see how it goes though. For the price I'm pleased with it: it looks and feels good on the wrist, surprisingly comfortable in fact.

PS The light is pretty crap here today but thanks to the "stick to ISO 80" tip from one of the recent photography threads (and timer + tripod), I'm pleasantly surprised how well these shots came out.

Thanks mates!

 

I am very satisfied with the watch. I had my doubts because I bought it on Amazon.com and eventhough I liked when I saw it, I was not completely sure how would it look like, but when once I wore it, I loved it.

 

Cheers!

Actually no, it came this way from Getat. Pretty darn good right out of the box.
