Shedding some light on the subject. The Dan Henry 1964 Gran Turismo
I love the design and look of this watch. I wear it for dressier situations, but I think it still retains a sporty look. It is 38mm, and runs on a Vk63 meca-quartz movement. It also has a 3D embossed caseback of the James Bond Astin Martin, the DB5.

Have been a watch enthusiast for a year and a half now. As life continues to roll down the tracks, I decided I needed a new Adventure. I have tried to pack in a lot so far in this short lived watch jo...

Amazing watch my friend, I also am a dan henry fan. I chose the panda but almost got the champagne dial you have. I want to wear it on strap again.. but i tried last week for 45 minutes to take the bracelet off and couldnt. I gave up trying for the time being. Maybe ill try again next week 😂 probably my only big complaint about this beauty, is no drilled lugs.
Thankfully, the bracelet is top notch
I absolutely love this vintage look.. of course jumped on e-bay when I saw yours lol Enjoy!

I think both styles are great, you couldn't lose either way. Mine came on the strap with the bracelet in the watch roll.

Good luck in your hunt!
Thanks for shining a spotlight on this watch. Have the same one and the caseback engraving puts in over the top. Would have like to see 18 or 20mm lugs, rather than the 19mm though.

Yes Kevin thanks for pointing that out. That is a "downside" with the watch for sure.
I originally thought this watch was too dressy for me. But after a quick mod I found it quite to my liking with its vintage racing vibe:
Spot the difference? 😉
