Hi! I’m fairly new to the watch but I’m very excited about it, hopefully continue learning and off course, collecting ❤️
I like the original without the logo.
30m WR, c’mon that is just lazy.
I like it but I have managed to pass on it every day since it’s release. So I have to vote pass.
Yeah, pass. As mentioned in another topic a) the 'original' one looks better for me (though the sometimes bad legibility) and b) dimply not affordable (for me)
Buy a Behrens instead for a quarter of the price...
Looks are subjective but make no mistake, the quality and finish on these are exceptional. As stated above the logo maybe spoils the look, would have to see it in the flesh.
There’s one thing I’ve not been able to work out with both the old and the new.
Why two moons?
It’s said to be accurate for 128 years. Is it the 40mm case and sizing of the moons? Assuming perhaps that it’s to save power reserve. Maybe a single moon would have needed to rotate faster?
Nice looking watch, but a tad on the pricy side for me.
