D. Love it, but date window is a deal breaker for me.

I was sort of thinking the same, but could maybe live with it 😂

It's a pity, considering how much thought went into designing the dial's texture. They should have at least offered a time only option. Oh well, perhaps they'll do that in a 36mm...

·

Or a 6 o'clock date to at least retain symmetry...

Beautifull but too small.

It's so nice! As I was looking at it, I kept discovering new details and loved every one of them.

I won't buy it, because I have to be frugal with my purchases and it wouldn't fit into my collection, but for the right buyer it's perfect.

Date ruins it & logo looks a bit "AliExpress "

I never knew about this brand. Thanks for bringing it to notice. Looks mad beautiful 😍

Love the date but true about the logo. I wish the logo would have been a bit different.

I have to 100% with you. I don’t know why, but more and more in disliking date windows, id they are not really well integrated I’ll pass

A bit big for a dress watch at 39mm. Also, date windows don't belong on dress watches and the older demographic that purchases them has trouble reading the date anyway, lol!

All great points 👍🏻

Excellent dimensions, beautiful dial, I think the display caseback was a good move on this piece. I prefer smaller watches but a 38, in my experience, wears very well. Honestly, kind of a home run. I just purchased the Strat-o-timer last year, and I’m not in the market for a watch like this currently, but I hope it’s a huge success because they did a great job.

·

Make it 36mm and ditch that godawful date window and is a winner.

Swing and a miss...

·

Very nice, but no lum material on the hands from what I see ?

Suppose with dress watch it wouldn’t usually be added?👌🏻

I like it but at that price I have options I like more

My guess on the brand logo is that its a tip of the cap to Texas their home state. Known as the Lone Star state (hence the Dallas Cowboys star on their helmets). So if I know Texans and I do have plenty of friends in (Austin, Ft Worth and San Antonio)... they absolutely LOVE them some good ol fashioned Texas branding. Its a thing, they think.
