Brotha' G,

Fit and finished is good. MD is a little better IMHO. What I like about this one is the thinner case design and the curved end strap, unabtrusive crown. A nice dressier version. BTW, keeping good time and lume is better than average.:) A watch you put on and forget its there, very comfy:)

Gregger or Tony, does any of you has the IW Radix? If yes how does this LP compared to the Radix?

Jacky,

WR is not good 5 Atm, but this is not a tool watch, more of a homage dress watch :P Case size is 43/44mm with lug with at 22 mm:)

I really like the watch. I like the case, the color and the strap. I'd make one tiny change if I were on the design team. See pic. Just like to see the LP only at the top on this model. Maybe even a tad larger than what I have hacked together. :D I think it fits better with the style of the watch. What 'da think, Tonster? Yea or na?:):):D

much cleaner without the novela on the dial!
that text under 12 looks like its a raised applied logo so you should be able to just pick it off the dial and have only the LP there. It probably doesn't have feet either since its chinese swiss its most likely glued on.

I think I would try it on a black one first before I tried it on the brown one just cuz the black ones are more common!
