hmm... was quite excited when i first heard of and saw its photos.
however, now I'm learning that the dial is actually a matte textured surface... not going to have the sunburst character of the brown, black or blue dial versions.

hmm...pass.

No, but finally there´s an easy way to get a green strap for the 5167 owners again.

You purchase a 5168, keep the strap and throw away the watch.

Am I wrong that the 5168 strap is just a bit wider than the 5167 regular ?

I doubt it will be easy to get but I won't pursue it so there's one less person you have to worry about getting in front of you on the list. I think the 5167A is better.

I would buy it if they made it with a black strap and a slate grey dial and reduced the price by 50%.
