Was on the fence between adding an Oysterdate Precision or a Seamaster 30 till I read this article last weekend. Immediately searched online and much to my surprise found a pinstripe with beveled lugs still nicely intact on eBay! Pulled the trigger.

It just arrived from Japan today. Absolutely fell in love with it. Great article! Inspiring. Thank you!
