New watch day.

Post by Murphy20 »

I mentioned in a different thread that I was expected this watch to be delivered later this week. Due to some speedy transfers between stores it actually arrived in my local store today, so I popped in to town to collect it.

I’ve only had it for an hour or two, so far too early to draw conclusions. However initial impressions are that it’s a really great watch. It’s very light (titanium), the strap is very comfortable, the dial is really clear and easy to read. The colour scheme (to my eye) really suits the style of watch.

Looks great. Are the indices full lume blobs like the Lumiere?

I’ve only seen the Lumiere online but I would say these indices are not quite as bright as those. I took a photo outside earlier, to give an idea of the lume brightness.

Nice acquisition @Murphy20

The FXD is a nice watch, as I'll attest with my experience with the M.N. version.

Lume wise, in overall terms it's extremely good, but can't quite match the C60 Lumiere; it simply doesn't have the lume content to compete.
