commented on Question: how much you care about the accuracy of a watch? ·

I fully agree with you.

Accuracy is also not my main concern in watches. Actually, I do the same with time setting as you do. Mostly one or two minutes ahead :)

Beautiful watch, beautiful content!

I own the Safari with the white dial and it is gorgeous. But to be honest, it was kinda a "second choice" situation due to the fact that the (in my opinion far more stunning) copper version was already sold out.

Beautiful watch!

Thank you for your shared thoughts, Dave - appreciate it.

Wonderful dial and case back, the seethrough movement looks sexy, plus the Cervo Volante strap is a banger!

But the price is a little steep in my humble opinion - what do you think?

commented on Porsche Design / GP Ice Race Chronograph 1 ·

An absolute beaut of a watch!

How does it hold up so far? Height not too thick?

I love the Chronograph 1 design so much and they did a bang-up job with this one.

Have you seen their newest addition already?

I know, right? I really badly wanna try this one on and see it in the flesh.
The pity is, I live in Switzerland and apparently, the next AD that sells Squale watches is about a three-hour car drive away, and not even an official boutique - which seems ridiculous to me...

Have you checked out the Super Squale Sunray Grey Leather? OMG, what a beaut!

commented on Squale 1521 - yay or nay? ·

Thanks a lot for your supporting words!

I think sizewise I could pull it off and I agree, the color pairing is breathtakingly beautiful.

The Sellita movement is a very solid one but in terms of exact timekeeping, it might not be the most accurate on the market. Although, I guess I'd be fine with that...
Probably going to look for a preowned as you suggested :)
