My New Steinhart Metropole

Yes, the Tiffany blue was sold out lol ;-). Actually, I rather preferred the deep red. It looked brighter on their website then in person. The more subdued red in person works very well. 

I really like the Rolex explorer I, but not the new look. And you know the problems with getting a new one retail. So I ordered this one. 

What caught my eye was how the dial markers 3,6,9 and the Steinhart logo changes color based on the angle of the light. The rest of the dial markers stay white. Check out the pictures. Very nice! 

So far, I'm impressed with the quality and fit. This could easily be a daily driver.

My wrist measured from one end to the other is 6 1/2 inches.  That would be 16.52 cm.  Yes, the lug does sit a bit straight.  But still very comfy.  I have decided to pursue 36-38mm to try for future purchases.  When I tried the Rolex OP 36, it did feel a bit too small, if that helps.  

BTW, the red on the dial did appear more muted in the metal. I was worried it would be too shiny but it was a classy muted tone.
