A new toy - I've thought about this for years...
I figured now is as good a time as any to support my AD and get something I've thought about for so long. Thanks to all for the posts about this watch. New straps will be on the way! 5196P ...

Thank you, Ed...

A beautiful watch!
To my eye, 37mm is the perfect size in this watch for all but the most extreme of wrist sizes. I think the look it's going for is " subtle and classy" and this is where larger watches often fall short. I even like the fact that it has a solid caseback. Fo...
