It's running about +10 a day which is just a hair fast for my tastes but it will do until I get my timing machine in February or March.
Without looking at the dial this watch is the most spectacular watch I own.
The bracelet is by far the most comfortable one I own next to my mesh bracelets.
The fit and finish is spot on, case work is beautiful and it's got a big signed 9mm crown that is butter smooth and easy to use.
I was surprised to find some kind of off color AR on the crystal, with a water drop test it appears to be yellow green colored AR.
The display caseback shows off a nice signed Nickle 2824. The bracelet is a solid link solid end link work of art!
The bezel insert, dial and hands are very understated compared to the rest of the watch. I remain undecided as to whether or not I like this combination but regardless the whole presentation is amazing in person. The bezel insert is a matte finish dark blue and matches the matte finish dark blue dial perfectly! The lume is not spectacular but it's on par with every other high end watch and the Accutron logo at 12 glows too which is a really nice touch!
At the shnoop price I stole this watch but If I was looking at it at it's regular price I would pass without a bit more impressive dial, bezel insert, and hand combo. Don't expect to see my Accutron up for sale anytime soon though it is still a great addition to any collection!
