Wearing my new arrival, STEINHART, NavB, 47.5mm, auto, in stainless steel. But somehow the steel has been treated differently and it looks exactly like titanium. Will post this one with lots of pics on NEW ARRIVALS, too. Happy Weekend, 3T!!!
I like the Nav B-Uhr vintage, very unique but I wish Steinhart make the 42mm automatic too . This 47mm just a bit too big to my wrist. And I'm not a big fan of hand wind movement otherwise I'll get the LE version.

Thanks for the kind words, Sang! I also like your O&W. Saw it in the Texas a few years back but had problems with the seller's terms
. Anyway, this Steinhart is not on Unitas. Instead it's on ETA and quite accurate despite just a few days out of the box. My wrists are small at 6.75 inches but somehow I'm ok with frisbee-sized watches
. You might want to think twide about handwinding watches. They serve a specific purpose and it's a joy to wind the watch daily.
Graham, yes, the lume is amazing. Just as good, if not better than the Seiko Monster series. At night when I have to use the bathroom, in very dim light/total darkness, the lume looks scary because it seems to throb....maybe it's got a soul of its own. I think Seiko may have met its match on this lume.hand6.gif
