I think either option 1 or 2 for a first choice, which are quite different styles. The C60 is very modern, with a flat bezel/crystal. The Dartmouth is rather different with a sloping bezel and box crystal, adding lots of interest. If he likes the first he may well end up with more anyway.

That's a great choice, and a great buy. It's pretty similar to the Dartmouth, isn't it. I got one of those in the sale also, but on the leather strap. I can forget it needs winding but it's no problem. The positive trade off is the slimmer case.

Thanks chaps
yep a very close relative of the dartmouth.
re the lume shot. It's all down to the amazing low light perfomance of the iphone 11. It seems to draw out lume that my eyes dont see! therefore I can claim no credit.

The watch has really surprised me in just how nice it is and much I like it. The bracelet is great but I have a strap on the way that should be very complimentary.

I would love the Dartmouth if it had a screw down crown!!! I’d go C60.
