Going with the new arrival Zixen.
(It was dark when I picked it up, and dark when I left this morning...so forgive the table lamp lighting). Looking forward to taking better pics of this unique one.
Big congrats on your new and first ZIXEN my friend !
I hope you're happy with htis one.
What's your first impressions ?
Thanks very much Phil & William!!!
Yes indeed, my first Zixen and also my first internal bezel watch strangely enough!!!First impressions are very favorable. Watch is extremely well built. It is a big watch for sure, but I knew it would be (The case design with hooded lugs extending to the lug length, and the internal bezel especially...since the massive sapphire crystal now extends all the way out to the bevel edge makes the watch wear big).
I put it straight onto a 24mm Isofrane when it arrived last night, and the watch is very comfortable on the wrist in this configuration!
(With my wrist size at 7.25", I kind of think I would like it even more if I could scale this one down by approximately 5%, but I still like it alot).Another real positive...this is a Unique Design (Seems like there are ALOT of derivative designs out there right now from a number of different micros, which has honestly had me saying, "Meh, sort of boring don't you think".) This one is not like that, and offers something different and unique. Like you've said before Phil...a "modern vintage" vibe to this one, and I like it! Very cool!
