Huge congrats. I've tried this on at my AD in the past but that particular one was already spoken for. I've also tried the YG version on. Both are stunning and I would love to add one at some point. I was on the list for the WG but then got the opportunity to pick up the TT CHNR so jumped on that.

The CHNR is a fantastic watch as well, IMO.

Thanks Brian! I didn't really see it coming either...until it was too late. Kinda like a heart attack.

In all seriousness, I have been lusting after it for quite some time, but I saw this as more of an AD watch what with the trouble it takes to get one sized correctly and the price differential between gray and AD is negligible. And then out of nowhere, one shows up at the AD. My guy told me he's been waiting for it for a year and a half...first one he's seen. Coincidence? I think not.

Love this one - curious to here your strap setup. I knew there was something funny about that 4 watch thread the other day, you kinda foreshadowed the official unveiling. It’s such a slick piece.

OK. I believe the six o'clock side is E-E and the 12 o'clock side is E-F and the in clasp adjustment is all the way in to its tightest position. It's just a little big, so they are ordering a D strap for the six o'clock side so I can try that on.

What do you have? Thanks,

What do you have? Thanks,


I’ve been through this drill and tried most of the sizes. If you are 6.5 (like me) I have both sides EE. Then microadjust is on largest.
I think that tape thing may suggest f and d (can’t remember) but I’m guessing you may need double ees.....

I'm right at 6 3/4, according to the tape thing. You may very well be right. If the D and F combo doesn't work, I might give the double E a shot.

Although, to be honest, as I type this, it's feeling pretty good as is. Thanks for the input, Adam.

Ah, I thought we had same size. Here is the guide. I found it off for 6.5 and all EEs to be best.

^^Thanks for that. Interesting that the YM and Daytona are so different in their sizing.
