Well, mine is -5secs for the first day on the wrist, we'll see where it settles. I've left it on the bracelet as I like it very much. With a big, chunky watch I feel I need a solid bracelet to counter-balance the head. My only aesthetic issue is with semi-skeleton hands on such a solid watch: they look a bit out of place. I'd love to see this watch with a set of Yao plongeurs and may make that move. Since I'm not a fan of tipped seconds, that makes triple sense for me. The dial on mine was done in C-3, so it lacks the stark white-on-blue of the production models (C-1) that looks so good. The blue anodised dial is very nice, looking dark blue from straight on in room light and much lighter outside or in reflection. The case is not the most beautiful or unique, but it is very well done. Mitch set a goal of producing a case suitable for a multi-$K watch and he's succeeded. Pics to follow once I can get it off the wrist!

Mine is running about -19sec/day so far. I have an Enzo strap coming, very thick that should handle that chunky head pretty well. Actually I was surprised how well the silicone strap held it in place on my wrist. Was a little surprised at the slightly less then LM-1 lume - but I like the white C1 against the blue dial. It works for me, but would love to see how the C3 looks, so get those pics posted soon Colin... ;) Nalu wrote: Well, mine is -5secs for the first day on the wrist, we'll see where it settles.

Yeah me too.. my LM-1 runs around +2sec/day... just checked the LM-3 again today and am at about -9sec over the last 24 hours, so maybe she's starting to settle down a little.... :D Paxman wrote: srh_pres wrote:Mine is running about -19sec/day so far.

Okay, okay....I'm starting to cave, but for 2 things....I hate skeleton hands and how can you be sure whether you are getting an ETA2824-2 and not the Sellita SW200? I have a problem with this "you will get either/or" thing....It reminds me of Bathy's!

The first production run of the LM-3 used the remaining ETA movements from the LM-1LE production. This first batch of 100 was guaranteed to have the ETA - thereafter will have the SW200.
