So...as the complete WIS nerd that I am, after landing at Vancouver airport I stopped on my way to my hotel to look at some watch shops at the Oakridge Centre mall.

Rodeo Jewellers had the new Defy Classic on show.

The closed blue dial was a bit "meh" live and certainly would not win over my Orbis Hour vision as a wear option. The Ti shiny bracelet felt odd and a bit tacky for some reason.

I was surprised to prefer the skeleton dial version, which looks like a fun watch to own...even with the Hublot / Biver design influence...but still a bit too OTT for me in my middle age

A bit rushed so I only managed to snap one shot next to my trusty BLNR
