but also quite nice as in the unusual factor. The shock absorbers are a cool enough feature, personally I am not too keen on the lines on the ideal as they draw the eyes the wrong way and also make the chrono unreadable.
As a first watch, its really not bad and would love to try one on the wrist. Is it Steel or Ti?
Cheers

It is quite a unique design and I commend the brand in it’s creativity. I’d certainly like to see this one up close.
I'm a little dubious about the shock absorbers on the lugs

I don't see a need for that on a watch. Your wrist isn't going to swell by that much throughout a hot day. Otherwise, it's a cool concept but not sure if this technology is needed for a watch. - AT
I've got photos of your wrist to prove otherwise

AT, Some years ago; after you'd scared me silly in your BMW M-car with the automatic reactive seat bolsters, I took a photograph if your wrist after you'd taken off the Audemars Piguet watch. Clearly, your wrist had been embossed with the AP logo in rever...
