Had picked up the "AboutTime" Magazine ( great Mag for affordable watches) and was intrigued by a couple of makers, namely:
Glycine
Davosa
Vollmer
I seem to be drawn to the smaller less known named companies that have had influence on the market.
A guy in my office who owns a Rolex said "Vollmer - what's that?"
'Anyways, about the watch:
Solid stainless steel case
Front is a sapphire crystal
Display back for the 25 jewel Swiss/ETA 2824-2 automatic movement (with hack set and rapid change date)
The SuperLuminova treated dial with black hands and markers is so bright that it lights up the whole corner of the room with all lights off!
Extremely easy to read in any light!
Came with the PO's old sweat stained POS leather band, which I immediately replaced with the Original Hirsch band from LongIsland Watches.
Actually I have 3 bands I'm trying out:
Hirsch Liberty brown, black and sheep skin. All make the watch look completely different!
Can't stop wearing it, looking at it....
Brown
Black
Sheep Skin
On the wrist
Let me know what you think!
