I've been lookin' at that one too Tony! ("almost" pulled the trigger about a week ago"...)I'm liking the overall vibe (and agree, a bit of a copy on the SevenFriday watch), but I do like the overall design of this one...cool case, and unique dial. But the Grey Blasted/Green is sold out already...hmmm...what color combo, and only PVD cases left??? I'm liking the yellow and the red versions of this one. |

I agree Chris. I didn't see the blasted versions but like the PVD. The green is very cool. Jeff, I think the hands on this one are a bit longe but still not a Watch you can read at a glance ] |

Jeff, I think the hands on this one are a bit longe but still not a Watch you can read at a glance ] The Green model case is the Grey Blasted (or maybe its just a grey PVD??? I'm not sure). All the other models (Red, Blue, Yellow), have the Black PVD case. I also agree with Jeff that these aren't easy watches to read the time at a glance, but that's not really the point with this design either IMO...it's just cool and unique with the exposed dial layout, and the bright colored hour hand helps to dial in the time with a short glance (The day/night indicator is pretty cool too IMO). Your getting a sapphire crystal with the Ancon X-35, and mineral crystal with the SevenFriday.... Different looks for sure, with a core that looks like either Ancon ripped off the design from SevenFriday or somehow collaborated... hmmmm |

did not care for the black/pvd...just too much black imho,making it hard to notice the sweet dial,which is a copy of the 7Friday...but I did order the grey/pvd/green and hope to have it soon... ...Chris the grey/green is available again at Ancon and is also sold by Anders/Gnomon.

Oh man Oscar! You are killin' me buddy...I thought I had a legitimate reason to resist the pull on this one, with the grey pvd case/green being my favorite overall...now you point out they are back in stock...what is a WIS to do???  |

You read my mind O...I pulled the trigger on the Grey PVD/Green version after some deliberation between the Green and Yellow combos. The grey PVD case offered with the green won out in the end, but I still really like the Yellow accent model as a close second. ...now...strap choices! |

way to go Chris...I liked the yellow version as well,especially for the summer.I have a grey Cuda strap that should work well on the grey pvd/green. |

oagaspar wrote:way to go Chris The grey Cuda will definitely be a killer combo on this one Oscar. I expect you'll have yours very soon! (I was surprised initially to see mine shipping from CA, USA, but looking at their website, it looks like Ancon has shipping distribution and dealer channels established in a number of locations.) |

I would have expected mine soon as well Chris...shipped yesterday,but won't arrive until next Wed. end of day,sig required UPS...7 days is a bit slow from Cali to Ohio imho. I would have gladly paid for shipping via USPS 2 day...  |
