Wanted a horse of a different color. 44mm with a Unitas movement. Great watch, but came with a crappy strap, that's actually 23mm... what's up with that? Sorry for the horrible pictures, they do not do the watch justice. ![]() ![]()

Nice, have not seen one before it must be a new model with the ETA 6498 movement. That's an interesting color too, kind of cool. The 23mm is usual for these cases, Ambassador, Mach, etc. Last edited on Sat Apr 24th, 2010 01:06 am by carlottt |

My wife loves green and that is a great shade of it...overall its a sweet looking design you have there. Love the bulky lume hands as even if they were hollowed out it would still look great! Thats a fine piece!

This 23 mm BS kinda bothers me. Getting a strap made is no problem. Jeanna at Stone Creek is awesome, my problem is with the buckle. I usually don't like anything tapered, and 23 mm buckles are few and far between.

I usually don't like anything tapered, and 23 mm buckles are few and far between. It is not done often but you could have Jeanna do a slight taper on the watch end with a 24mm strap so it is not obvious and go with 24mm buckles.
