I've owned this watch a few days noe & as you may know this is my first venture into the Swiss watch scene. The looks first of all is what drew me to this watch. There are others cheaper & more expensive, but I saw this & just had to have it. I believe it's rubber in the bezel that creates the 15 minute orange surround, it's a super effect. Time keeping wise I've not had long enough to say really, the only thing I will say is the power reserve is terrific. I do have a winder, but it's only been on it for setting up purposes in 3 days & still going. The size, I think it depends on your size if you'll be happy. Tall guy should be fine, but smaller wrists may struggle with the 43,5mm I've got. They do a 39mm which would be better in this case. Regarding dress, I got this watch for all my occasions going out. The watch is thick, but when you put it on it seams fine. I've tried with my suit & no problems with my cuffs. There are smaller & thinner, but I just love the presence of this watch.
Great looking example. Glad to hear you’re still pleased with it. Regarding dress, is the 43.5mm version thinner than the (older 45mm) PO i wonder? If not, I’d have to politely disagree about fit under a shirt at least. In my experience, whilst it will fit under some suit jackets (loose fitting type), there is little chance of it fitting well under a tailored dress shirt or suit. It is simply too tall. At least without getting the cuff taken out or using ‘stretchy’ cufflinks. And the chrono is even worse at knocking on for 3/4 inch thick
