Horological Meandering

Finally got the Heritage Tux on the Forstner BoR…

 

…and I love it. It takes the watch back to its vintage roots and feels very “period appropriate”.


It makes the watch a daily wearer - I wear a lot more brown leather shoes than black and this makes it quite neutral. It also works very well in the hot, humid weather of Singapore.  The bracelet is super comfortable, as between the adjustments of the links and the clasp there are multiple combinations and the beads allow it to wrap the wrist beautifully.

There is a quirk which I am sure is not to everyone’s taste (I was apprehensive) - the bracelet is 19mm at the lugs but then has a sharp step down to about 16-17mm, so may look a bit small on big wrists.  For those who hate this, you can try the Longines BoR bracelet which is straight at the lugs. Enough verbiage, and on to the obligatory wrist shot.  Thanks for looking!
