I've had two of these, different colors but same model. Rather poor build quality even considering the price. The movement ticks rather loud in certain positions. The case is plated brass that dents pretty easy. The strap started to disintegrate afer a few months. For around the same money you can get a superior automatic watch with steel case and sapphire crystal from a Chinese brand.

It's on the strap, comes with box, card and papers (although you can't see anything in detail in the ad).

Nope, pretty bang on $1800.

Is there a Nodus Chemtrail also? I would definitely go for that one.

commented on Done! Bronze Case tool watch ·

Really solid watch with tool vibes. The dial and hands are well balanced and goes well with the bronze case. Nice watch, good work!

commented on Tudor made the Ranger too big. San Martin…’hold my beer’. ·

I've added almost 2 cm in wrist circumference. Just do heavy deadlifts once a week for 5-6 years. 😀 Easy.
