I am consoling myself over the wait for my new Sea Angler with this nice, hefty watch.  

I always wondered what the attraction was to these and had to see for myself.  Now I know.  Big as this thing is I dont want to take it off.  Comfortable also.  I can only imagine how the real thing must wear.

On my puny 6 1/2 inch wrist, basic, simple and clean.  (Yeah, yeah I know I said I would never buy a watch without a second hand but I also said never say never).  Hard to tell with no seconds hand but after 24 hours it seems spot on.

MARINA MILITARE WATCH
Swan-Neck Micrometer Regulator.
Genuine Black Croco style Leather strap with Glossy Buckle

Quick 4 day shipment from HK and a slight problem with the first one which was also quickly replaced.

This one really pushes the size limit for me.  I just hope the Sea Angler fits me as well.
