thanks mark. i've been working on upping the work wardrobe game this year. i even ordered my first custom shirt (online with my ipad doing measuring, curious to see how this works out). my body shape doesn't exactly match the S/M/L/XL format.

I'm actually not fully sure yet since I haven't had need to use the crown. The watch came to me set to the right time and was still going when I opened it. Hooray overnight shipping! I suppose I should try out the crown soon regardless. :)

But having everything on the left is actually quite good for me since I wear my watch on my left wrist despite being left-handed. No digging into the back of my hand. And having the start-stop pusher on the bottom is good too. Feels very natural to use my right thumb to operate.

And yeah, it's ridiculously spec'd. I certainly don't need most of the over-engineered things that Sinn packed into this watch. I might regret it when the first servicing comes around, but for now I'm blissfully fine with it. I was a little worried because the watch felt much heavier than when I tried it on at the roadshow. But with the bracelet properly sized, it feels good now. Only a little bit heavier than my C60 Kingfisher.

do you use the crown with the watch still on your wrist? i've always taken my watch off to use the crown. i can see how the pushers on the left side would be pretty useful. especially the bottom pusher. i know it would be out of balance visually, but functionally it would seem to me to make the most sense to have bottom left/top right (thumb/forefinger).

Et dès que je t'aperçois, alors je sens dans moi ma montre qui bat... Ou fais tick-tick. Or whatever Piaf would have sung about a watch :lol:

Very nice. Is it the 35mm size? (Seems a good fit.)

Yes, it is the 35mm size. But whenever I want to take a picture of this watch, I have to tilt my arms slightly so as not to take a picture of the camera. It actually fits much nicer than it looks in the picture.
