Decided to wear this after a few weeks collecting dust, ready for a slow Sunday afternoon. I simply adore VC timepieces from the 80s and 90s, before all the hypes. What do you think ?

I like that a lot - it’s a simple but interesting design.

All the best, Jon

Big love for that one! A good old friend. I remember this one very well when it was issued, in the early 2000's, right?

Very close. According to VC book and online articles, it was released in 1997, but remained in production until early 2000’s. It was succeeded by the Malte with power reserve indicator, followed by the current malte iteration.

Curved cases (curvex) are the most comfortable

Just put into my wish list

Indeed it hugs the wrist. I think neo vintage VCs are under- appreciated.
