-
CASE: OVERSIZED AND SEXY C-SHAPED ALL-STEEL CASE MEASURING A ROBUST 39.5mm ACROSS NOT INCLUDING SCREW-DOWN CROWN BY 41mm LUG TO LUG. THIS ONE REMINDS ME OF A SEIKO TURTLE(ALBEIT A BIT SMALLER) IN THE WAY IT WEARS. BECAUSE OF THAT THIN BEZEL AND WIDER DIAL, THIS ONE REALLY HAS QUITE THE WRIST PRESENCE. CHECK OUT THAT GROOVY BEZEL WITH THAT COLORFUL SILVER/RED/YELLOW 15 MINUTE COUNTDOWN SEGMENT. THE ORIGINAL LUMED PIP IS STILL PRESENT WHICH IS A RARE FOR A WATCH OF THIS AGE.
-
DIAL: SUCH A BOLD AND NO-NONSENSE UTILITARIAN LOOK. NICE MINTY MATTE BLACK DIAL WITH THOSE SUBTLE CROSS-HAIRS LOOKS ULTRA SWANK! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THOSE PERFECTLY PRESERVED LONG, THIN, AND PUFFY LUMED LINE MARKERS WITH THAT HINT OF CUSTARD PATINA. THE DIAL LUME MATCHES PERFECTLY WITH THAT FOUND ON THOSE MINTY LONG STICK STEEL HANDS. THAT LONG BRIGHT ORANGE SWEEP SECONDS REALLY JUMPS OUT AGAINST THAT UNDERSTATED DIAL. ALL OF THIS GLORY VIEWED UNDER THE ORIGINAL DOMED CRYSTAL WITH INTEGRATED CYCLOPS.
-
MOVEMENT: THIS FELICIA RUNS ON A HIGH-GRADE 25J ETA 2873 WHICH JUST RETURNED BACK FROM A FULL-SERVICE FROM MY WATCHMAKER. WATCH IS KEEPING EXCELLENT TIME AND RUNNING STRONG. DATE IS QUICKSET.
- WATCH IS MOUNTED ON A THICK YET SUPPLE MINIMALIST DARK BROWN HORWEEN STRAP SUPPLIED BY @WATCHDISPLAY WHICH WORKS AWESOME ON THIS GORGEOUS DEEP SEA BEAUTY. THIS ONE IS JUST MAGIC ON THE WRIST. THIS IS A PERFECT ALL-ROUNDER DIVER WHICH WOULD LOOK FANTASTIC WITH A SPORTS COAT BUT WOULD WORK PERFECTLY AS A WEEKEND WARRIOR.
