And relax

Feb 04, 2021,14:32 PM

Hi All After over 5 1/2 years of wearing my Urushi every day it's finally having a rest.

I've enjoyed wearing it every day, but after a few days of not being very active at all - chained to desk at home, it finally hit it's power reserve limits. Felt like a good point to let it relax for a bit. Who knew it would be covid that would stop me wearing it - even indirectly. Views haven't ever really changed on it - I still think it's a bit big & thick, but then that doesn't really matter when it's got the glorious black dial. And yes let's be honest for this watch it's all about the dial - a wonderful dark lustrous black with almost unplumbed depths & glorious gold highlights. I'm guessing it won't be long before I'm wearing it again, but for now I'll let it enjoy it's well earned rest. Cheers JML

Has it been that long since they came out? Cazalea

It's probably a bit longer - I had to wait a bit as the first batch sold really quickly

Main driver of me getting it was we're all the original posts here. Cheers JML

I got my first Presage by March I had gotten these two Too bad they are so fat. I got tired of having two, so made a deal on the white watch to sell it to MTF Mike ...

I'd have kept the black dialed version too 👍

And yes I'm with you on them being a tad chunky. Cheers JML

A beautiful piece. And giving it some rest is good.

I like how they've kept the same watch & just changed the dial & you could get the one with the dial you liked the most. Cheers JML

A most versatile and handsome piece

It was pretty much always about the dial on this one. Cheers JML
