In the countryside, for a short break.

From the normal, I would assume, bracelet, which should accompany the watch.

I like that kind of cream/brownish color of the indices What struck me is that at first quick site it reminded me of the Omega Railmaster I know two different watches but at a first quick glance there are similarities. And for either watch it’s no insult because both are great

I really like the combination of the sand colored canvas, which matches the tritium patina. Very thoughtful.
