These are supposedly 42mm cases. That means they could be either 42 or 44mm in my experience with their measurements. They tend to underestimate the size. Why I don't know. Anyway, these are part a of newly introduced Horizon series that will become available in July of this year. There will be 14 models in all. Here are six of them. See what you think. cat28.gif       |

I wish they would just use the symbol without the triangle or not have it so damn big. But, I do like the watches. hand6.gif |

I like them but they are derivative of others we've seen right up to the color schemes. I'm with TD on the logo... needs to be downsized... stopped me from buying a Marc special cuz' I knew the logo would drive me bonkers. |

I agree with Pax and Tony. They are very similar to other watches we've seen recently. Maybe that's one of the reasons they keep the logo so prominent. To be a little different... I think the 2 tone horizon one is pretty cool though. HIT! Last edited on Tue Apr 8th, 2008 08:39 pm by chunkychew |

I like the chrono versions of the B&R homages in both SS and PVD and would get one as the mechanical chrono appeals to meyourock.gif |

Did they mention a target price for these? It always amazes me when one company hits on a cool design (B&H, Big Bang, End of Days) there are similar ones out within 1-2 years. I guess it's hard to come up with something that hasn't been done before. I even saw a Seiko the other day that was a version of the old Hamilton Ventura. What goes arond comes around. I can live with the logo if the price is right. |
