Received my Orange TRIAS from Marc at http://www.longislandwatch.com yesterday, and SURPRISE..........a beautiful black leather aviator strap from the world famous WIS, mcwright. What an unexpected treat.....thank you, Mike! The TRIAS is a brilliant red/orange color in a beautiful SS case that is a little lighter than expected, but, at the same time, very solid. It came well packed and encased in a beautiful little chrome box shaped much like an eyeglass case (which should make a great travel case for carrying 2 extra watches). The movement is not what we thought, (Miyota 8215). It has a different (very nice, but different - more finished, actually) look to it. It was immediately apparent as when I went to set it, it "hacked". It is probably a Chinese movement which appears to be very accurate, and, is of no concern to me as it comes with a 2 year warranty backed by Marc's sterling reputation. The strap was a shiny black, almost "plasticky" look, but on this beautiful $99 (shipped) timepiece, it can be readily replaced (especially with great friends like Mike). All-in-all, first impressions are that it was a sound purchase! It also comes in a yellow dial! Unfortunately, I was up all night with a bad case of acid reflux and have not been in the mood to take any pictures........................later, perhaps! Item: Trias Automatic Full Lume Orange Pilot's Watch #01064EO Description: Men's watch with 21 automatic (self-winding) movement, orange face, scalloped bezel, date, full luminescent dial for high legibility at night, mineral crystal front, exhibition back. Case: Solid stainless steel, polished, 43 mm diameter (w/o crown) x 15 mm thick, exhibition back. Band: Black leather, buckle closure, 22 mm Water Resistance: 3 ATM Warranty: 2 Years |
