I used the watch everyday since Friday afternoon. Im walking around with this smooth cloth in my pocket so i can wipe the crystal down in case i get dust or fingerprints on it.
It sits very nice on my wrist. No uncomfortable feelings. (Except for my imagined fear of, "i might banging the watch against something hard every time i move" -syndrome).
I have twisted and turned the watch, looked at it from every angle. Enjoyed every second so far. Only had on little bit of let down. That is the lume, im a bit spoiled after my Armidas, Seikos and the Luminox. But i know this isn't a divers watch, so im fine with it now.
I also noticed a cool thing. When there is no reflections on the crystal, it looks like it fell out and the dial is unprotected.
Oh and before i forget. 21mm between the lugs. Who´s bright idea was that? That leaves me very limited when selecting straps. However i can opt for original straps in the future or squeeze in a 22mm nato.
In reality i have no complaints whatsoever. The dial is easy to read and so far the mov seems to be very accurate. The bezel fits perfectly, no play at all in any direction.
The bright orange secondhand is hypnotizing to follow around. Great that they did not just paint it white and been happy with it.
If i stack all the hands together, the luminous paint and the bright orange paint line up exactly edge to edge. That was a holy sh**t moment! (On my Luminox they did not even bother painting the sides black on the hands).
I wont be opening up the watch to view the movement, dont want to mess anything up by accident. I just have to google for a picture or video of it.
That raises a question that i should of probably asked before buying the watch. The Automatic Swiss movement 2836-2, 11 1/2 '''. Is that what is known as a "in-house" movement?
