I bought the caseback a few weeks ago and love it on my Hesalite 3861. Didn't realize the lumed bezel even existed! Looks great, does the glow last as long as the dial indices?
I wish I was good at photography. My other big passion is cars (big Porsche fanboy). Backroads and track driving are my adrenaline hits.
Mine moved all the time and was one of the reasons I sold it after a few months. I also felt like a bit of a poser as the compass added zero utility to any of my regular activities. Even if I needed to use a compass, i wouldn’t have used the one on the Alpinist
I took five on my 7 day cruise that I’m finishing up today. Lorier Falcon, Lorier Zephyr (friend’s wedding took place halfway through), Seiko SPB143 on rubber, Formex Reef GMT on metal bracelet and Tudor BB58 on an Erica’s original strap. I could’ve left the Reef GMT and Falcon behind but I didn’t want to. I had fun wearing several watches a day while swapping between meals, pool, lounging, casual and formal occasions. It’s not a big deal to me to have a few to enjoy.
I have the new falcon as my Rolex Explorer substitute and I must say, it has scratched the itch extremely well. I still think about the Explorer if someone posts about it but I’ve been able to achieve a high level of satisfaction from the Lorier. Not everyone can. If it’s within your means and you really want the BB58 then go for it. These are material luxuries and there’s not much rhyme or reason, just whatever internal justification you may need.
