    This arrived. The tones are pretty subtle. I can't wait to get it out into daylight.

    The last of the year. Arrived today. I've promised myself to be more selective from now on. No more watches for 2016.... Well, aside from the one I already have an offer in for. ;-)

    This statement is a LOT easier to make here in late, late December...

    I think I have one more that's still in transit and I actually paid for it before this one; a 175.0310 Dynamic 3 chrono; one of them will be my last for 2016.

    175.0310_122316 4848.jpg
    I missed one a few weeks ago that was in better condition mounted on the proper bracelet. Somebody wanted it - actually several people - wanted it a LOT more than I did. So this one, with a ding on the bezel and some other flaws, is a consolation prize. The price was considerably less than the other, too. It's going off to the spa next week and I'm going to see what a new bezel will put me back...

    My first impression after wearing it today is generally positive. This watch is VERY readable, the size and weight feels good to the wrist. I think the pushers always bothered me but after using the chrono a couple of times in practice they're not bad.
