I wear my smurf everyday. Sure I look at other watches. That being said, the burning desire to go out and get another high-line watch has been muted. I just look down and smile. I could stare at the smurf all day. I love the face, I love the weight and I love wearing it everyday.

I might eventually go get another dive watch or two (aqualung, tornek, or fifty fathoms) but the smurf will be my everyday watch.

I’ve had mine for a few years. I wear it all the time. Mostly this time of the year. Definitely one of my favorites. You won’t be disappointed. Good luck.

I don’t know if I really have a “grail” but I really, really like this watch.

I’ve had mine for a month or so. I don’t get how people consider it as a heavy watch, its poised and firm on the wrist due to the increased mass, but certainly isn’t heavy. A heavier watch is the wg ym II I have which is noticeably heavier than the smurf. Both are less or the same as some panerai I have.

Anything above 170 grams I find annoying on a everyday basis. I guess this makes my wallet lucky as any full PM is over weight for my comfort zone.
Curious if you have tried the PM Daytona? The Smurf, although I bought it 2x never really felt comfortable enough for me to keep it, but the RG Daytona feels pretty comfortable even on a daily basis...
