Danny thank you so much for the ( your detailed, in put) reply, yes big help in my decision.  I can be driven if it is something I want, so your feed back is a big help.

Pax I wish I could sit down and drink a beer with you, Just looking at you in the pic's, you would keep me laughing all day long.

Yes Blackwind I think if I have a little patience I could get it cheaper?

You know Pax you are very observant.  Enzo, Orsa or Ocean7 is just to nice to wear to work wright now.  So if am going to stare down at my wrist during the day to see the time, than it has to be tricked.  So what do you think Danny, is this a good work watch?


I don't work "Search and Rescue" but I do work basically the same field as a Paramedic for a busy Metro service. I bought my G-SAR for a work watch and used to wear it quite a bit. I have to say I don't have a scratch or scuff on it that I can find. I am always reaching into cabinets on the truck and crawling into wrecked cars, etc. and "ding" my watches all the time. The G-SAR and my Ocean7 LM-1 have been my toughest watches. Not a scratch on either. Can't say the same for my Doxa's bezel. I can recommend it as a tough and durable work watch.

Nice post

When they make it in 44 Ill buy it.

All my friends tell me due to the size of it, being a 41.mm that it really wears smaller than that?

Its a nice looking watch though

Steve that wrist shot, is just a great picture.  The watch looks huge on your wrist.  My wrist is 71/4 big do you think.  There is a SAR on e-bay right now, the person selling it states he was on the design team and said he did not see them making this any bigger and I no the chrono is 46mm but they $2100.00 for it.  I see Hucky's point, I like big watches. The Orsa Sea Angler I love the size it's perfect for my 71/4 wrist, but I first thought Enzo's EM001 was small now after wearing it with all 3 bands I love it.  I keep reading that once you put the GSAR OR SAR on, it does look bigger.  

Steve I have been, working for the Calif Dept of Corrections for 20 years.  It's nice because I can pick any job I want to in the prison I work at, out of 1000 prison guards working there, is only 15 guards that have better seniority than me.  I might take a promotion to Correctional Counselor, not sure decide by March 08.  I run a 5 Inmate low minimum work crew right now, I basically work on the outside of the prison, my shop is still on prison grounds, at my prison theres someone getting stabbed (inside the walls, inmate 25 years to life) seems like twice out of the week, but thats inside the walls, "but been there and done that", did my "DUES", so I'm in charge of are Recycle Dept, you know Calif has been BIG on Recycle since about 1991. Cardboard, Alum, Plastic and Metal, we produce about $48000.00 year, so ya I can bang a watch around.  Maybe someday I will tell some stories, but that will have to be at another time.  So Scuba Steve does the watch look big, like it does in the pic, oh I keep hearing the Bracelet is the "BOMB".  Teddy .


here is that SAR on E-LAY

It looks smaller on the wrist than in that pic. That pic is deceiving. I have a 7.5" wrist and think it looks small. I believe the 20mm band adds to the smaller illusion. It ought to look great on your wrist IMHO. If you can wear the Enzo, you can wear the G-SAR. I think the Enzo looks bigger on the wrist then the G-SAR

Hey Teddy, I've been watching that same watch on the bay and that really is a decent 'buy it now price'. I've a friend that has the GSAR auto and he really likes it. I've offered him a reasonable offer for it a couple of times and he won't take it. He keeps telling me how much he likes it. I keep hoping he'll sell because he got it for free when he went to Afghanistan last year. All it cost him was a little paperwork and abracadabra instant self issue.
