 I've had this one on the list for quite a while. I wanted one ever since I first saw them several years ago. When I first saw this model I was a little put off by the large logo on the dial, but as time passed it grew on me. Later, I actually saw one without the logo and I thought...."hmm...doesn't look quite right without it, gives it some character".

After missing out on a few for good prices on sales forums I finally got the jump on one for a great price, about half the price of a new one.

Lots of likes: Feels very high quality, bidirectional bezel with indicator, love the hands, great lume, love the brushed case & large crown, great strap with two raised padded sections running the length of the strap, date wheel is white on black, fantastic wood box

Druthers: I think the date wheel would have been much better at 4 or 4:30

Specs: 44mm diam, 11.5 thick, sapphire crystal, ETA 2824 movement

And of course, some pics sponge bob.gif  Sorry for the lint on the crystal.
