I could not help myself with this one it had a classic look and no lume, its a pure dress watch so I placed a low bid on it and won it. The strap I think will need changing but its a sturdy watch and does not give anything away about its price.
This Parnis is my second but this has the Seagull ST25 if I am not mistaken, please correct me if I am wrong.
Its a hacking movement which I was surprised to find out, the quick shift date is achieved by pushing a small button slightly recessed on the case down by the 8 marker.
42mm wide and 50mm length including lugs.

Congratulations Neo. I have had the same for some time and it's a great looking watch of very good quality for the little $ it costs. You mind me asking where you got it? I hve mine on a blue carbon fiber strap and it's the ultimate combo:)
wear it in good health!:) Brice

To answer your question Brice I got it off the bay, they pop on and off there a lot.

No bad, Neo. This looks ok. If the diameter were .04mm less, it would be the dimensions of the IWC Portuguese, which your Parnis sort of reminds me of.

Did you get a date changing tool with the watch? That's what the dimple on the date reset button is for. Don't use a toothpick, Neotoon1.gif.

Big Congrats, amigo.

No tool came with it, I used a punch for adjusting straps. It pushes in effortlessly without any strain.
