Got this puppy only 9 hours ago! And 12 hours before that I bought my Swiss Army. Almost got my 18K SG Bluesy. Maybe later. Woohoo I am in watch heaven!

The stenciling and the half and half colors of the smaller dials are wonderful. Add in the weight and it rocks!

Yeah, I almost pulled the trigger on getting the LE Blacksteel a few months ago, but ended up controlling myself. If they offered a black bracelet to go w/ the watch I think I would have done it. I like the look of the rubber strap, but I like the ease & quickness of putting on watches w/ metal bracelets.

Hey Astcell, now that you've owned it for a few months, how are you liking it? I have always loved big Chrono's and this watch has the best pushers IMO...just love the waffle-effect. The stencil numbers are pretty sweet too.

I like it a lot. I actually like the weight, I am not much for titanium and lightness at all. I wanted the Blacksteel (missed it by 1 day) but actually I have seen plenty of them for sale and at no premium, so I can get one online if I really wanted.

Sounds like you and I see eye-to-eye on watches...I've never been a fan of titanium either for the same reason you state.

Yeah, I'm kind of glad I didn't pull the trigger on the Blacksteel when I was originally going to buy...probably saved myself almost $3K compared to what they are going for now. I think now that they've been out a while, you could probably pick up a LNIB example and not have to worry about too much more short-term depreciation.

I still do not know why I have the inner dial that goes to 100. Any ideas?
