 Thanks Oscar, Phil, and Tony for the kind words on the SMITHS PRS-68 arrival! I'm lovin' it!

Phil - dimensions are very similar to the cpt.willard (6105-8110)...lower case dimensions very much the same as the 6105, crown is maybe 0.5mm larger in diameter...probably the most significant difference is a bezel height that is ~ 1mm taller than the 6105. Build is top notch with my favorite features being the internal surface dome on the crystal, matte black rehaut, elongated handset compared to the 6105, and that oh-so-sweet feeling ball-bearing bi-directional bezel design which really gives the same bezel feel as the original capt. willard! (the 6105 is very unique in that regard, and glad to see eddie putting those design features into the prs-68).

Sticking with the prs-68 today.
