Incoming just in time for the holiday!

I liked this one from the start and couldn't wait to get some wrist time. I got it yesterday, but I finally had a little time today for a post. I have it mounted on my B&S strap, but looking forward to trying it on a bracelet.

You need to get yourself one.....they are really that good. I actually like this watch more so than the vintage Daytonas in reverse panda. Congrats op, love hearing great incomings in time for Christmas.

Thank you everyone, it is just amazing in person. Chadri, your pictures were amazing and got me really excited for this one. I realize I am not a watch collector, but more of an enthusiast as I just can't keep myself from enjoying great wrist time with the pieces I acquire.

I can now understand the love for a hesilite crystal. I am in love with the distortion effect, it's hard not to stare at it from every angle.

Speedy wanted to try out the metal band. I love the vintage strap feel, but I think the bracelet complements the silver sub dials well.
