Gaining in popularity
These VC Overseas Gen 3s have become much more popular (and harder to get) since I purchased mine ~18 mos ago.

Easily the best alternative to the RO and Nautilus IMO
There are a lot of other great competitors in the steel sports watch segment these days, but most of them still fall a bit short with respect to the finishing of the bracelet, case, and/or movement. The Overseas is one of the few options that is of equal,...
Fan of the Overseas, and the dual time specific.
But my heart lies with the gen 2 just a little bit more, only based on aesthetics. Technically and for value, the gen3 is it.

But I’m having serious hang ups over that arrow hand sticking out underneath like that, is it less noticeable in real life? I need someone to talk me through it before I get a 5524
Both
I own both a 5524G and this VC Dual Time; I don’t feel there is much of a difference in aesthetics of the “hidden” hour hand, I actually like the touch of red of the VC dial. I wear both watches a lot, but the versatility of the VC with a steel bracelet, ...
Great insight, thanks!
