New Watch Alert!!!

Its been awhile since I have posted here. Not having an app has been killing me lol. Anywho, anyone looking for a well made dress watch should definitely check out Kuoe. This is their Old Smith 01. Its a 35mm case with a domed mineral crystal and blued (painted) hands. The build quality is outstanding considering the cost. I spent some time speaking with their team and found out that they assemble them in house at their building in Kyoto, Japan. Tell me your thoughts, but I really enjoy this watch so far!

Immaculate. Normally I'd gripe against anything new with small seconds, but OLD is right there in the name, so absolved.

LOL. Small seconds is the way!

Wow! That's a really nice looking timepiece. I have not heard of Kuoe before, so I'll have check them out. 

Does Kuoe offer a full range of pieces or do they just focus on dress watches?

This is right up my street. I love small seconds. Be good to see it on the wrist at this size.

It’s beautiful! I’ve really wanted one of these but just can’t train my brain to like smaller watches on my wrist. Enjoy!

Thats a great looking watch 👍

I am looking for a small second dress watch so will check them out.

The brand is on my short list. I love the look of their watches. My k ly reservation is that I think 36mm is as small as I can go on my 7.25" wrist.

Yeah that is fair! It wears really well on my 6.75" wrist!

Its a great piece! They have a ton of dial/strap options with the Old Smith series.

I would say its more traditional style. They do have a ww2 style field watch as well! Im hoping they bring this 1960s influenced style to a dive watch.

Ill definitely get some wrist shots up! What size wrist do you have (if you dont mind me asking)? Mine are just under 6.75". I feel comfortable with the Kuoe size all the way up to my 3861 speedy.

Fantastic looking watch. Looks so well proportioned. Thanks for sharing - look forward to seeing more!

Such a beauty... What is your impression after two months? And would you mind sharing some wrist shots? I love smaller watches but I'm not sure if it's a tad too small for my 17 inch wrist. (And I'd love to see the same watch with a mechanical movement.)
