 Marc at http://www.longislandwatch.com is having a sale on this watch. I got mine yesterday and I LOVE IT. It is super comfy to wear thanks to a super nice strap. The watch looks 10 times better in person than in the pictures on the net. Way better. I like it because it is striped down to just three hands. No date to mess with when I want to put it on. 43MM case size. 17 jewel Swiss Made ETA movement. Swiss Made on the dial. If you like no muss, no fuss military-style watches, this is a steal!

 I've got the same one...I yanked the strap and installed a Trias strap I had bought for another project and never used.......That is a killer deal for an ETA automatic...

This Trias doesn't Lumne so good. At least mine doesn't. It will need to go to Kent Parks for a re-lumne. Only the hands were done at the factory. But, they barely glow on mine. I've got plenty of Seiko's though if I need GLOW!

 That something I really don't understand, I have a few Swiss made watches like ZENO, Swiss Army and even Glycine, non of them have the lume like Seiko or Citizen! Sad but true! Why would such expensive watches do not use good lume paint or good quality stuff??

 

The only Swiss that I know of that have good lumes are Rolexes and Omegas.

The only place the comes to mind right off for straps (one and two button) is Ernie's strap shop at WUS. He has some:
