The postman just delivered my MM.  For the money, it's a great look since I can't even think about the real thing. The quality appears to be OK and we will see how well it keeps time but, I really do like the look.

I was surprised how fast it got here since I ordered it the same day as a Magico coming from a local suburb which I am still waiting for.  I am also waiting for Gevril #16, a black dial "Park", shipped yesterday. I can't believe I bought 3 watches this week.

Very nice CF.  Who makes that model?  Is it an auto?

I really like the Submersible homage, does this one have an ETA movement or is it a clone.

You'll really like the Park, I have the black dial too.  i was thinking of snagging one of Lexingtons on JTV this week but it looks like it is the exact same case as the Park.

The listing did not say what movement it has but I do know that some of his watches do use ETA movements.  I only paid $165. so I suspect that at best it's an ETA parts movement.

those are nice pickups  .... I doubt I am alone when I say sometimes I enjoy a cheaper piece like that as much as a much more costly watch  .... especially when you can dress it up with a new band

44mm. 24mm strap. 316L SS, Built to diver specs. (100 meters) Rotating bezel etc.  The strap is also quite nice but, I wouldn't want to get it too wet. It also keeps very good time. Lost only 1 sec in over 12 hours and that's good for a new watch. Once it gets accustomed to me, I suspect it will do even better. I will take some better pics.

How about this one? It's not an easy watch to photograph and get the dial detail.

good looking

if it is automatic.... most mm are using chinese made clone 7750...
or else you wont have small second at 9....

but was told this movement is quite good though...

its a bargain anyway.... nice catch!
