Pharmo 33 Posted July 16, 2013 Afternoon chaps, I ordered my SO as soon as it came back into stock with Mary/Rochest. Well glad to say its finally here. I must admit I have never looked forward to receiving a watch so much! Anyhow I know how much I enjoyed looking at pictures of this beauty so here goes my friends Its a amazing watch and loving it. This is my favourite by a mile now. I was worried that it may be a bit too big/heavy for my small wrists but to be honest its fine! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mianos 0 Posted July 17, 2013 I have the red handed version on my wrist right now. Great watch. I had mine side by side with a guy a few weeks ago. I was almost impossible to tell them apart. I thought the funny font on the bezel would be a tell but the gen has all the same wacky looking angles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bowtiefanatc 16 Posted July 18, 2013 Are the 44's available again?? If they are this is fantastic news! Edit: to answer my question, yes they are ordering on tomorrow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norrie 1 Posted August 3, 2013 Waiting on mine to turn up this week. Couldn't resist trying on the gen today and to my surprise, its smaller than anticipated! Kinda wish it was a mill or two bigger. I'm sure ill changes mind when I strap it on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norrie 1 Posted August 5, 2013 Mine just turned up in the mail. Woohoo! To be honest, you can't tell that the markers are stamped just by looking at it. Well, I can't and my eyesight's not bad. I'm sure I could if I took a macro photo or got the loupe out but that's not generally how I look at watches. Amazing rep. No need for fence-sitting on this one. And my comment above… Well, I've changed my mind. Plenty big enough. I was just side-by-siding in store with a 45.5mm Planet Ocean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
