Re: Non CW of the Day
Very nice and 43mm if I'm not mistaken.
I had one with the tungsten bezel but fancied the 46mm with the small seconds. On the wrist the 46mm feels no different to the 43mm in my experience.

^^Yes 43mm indeed. I just picked it up last weekend. Funny you mention the tungsten bezel. It was between those 2 versions for me.
On a separate topic. Don't you also have the C8 Power Reserve Chronometer? I just made that purchase on Monday and waiting impatiently for it to reach me!

Re: Non CW of the Day
Yes a great watch and my best timekeeper. Only issue for me is the black case which I'm aware can be marked, so it only comes out on special occasions. Great to have the PR feature and nice to have a handwound movement. I also have the Trident SH21 which isn't as accurate in my limited experience.tysonmax wrote:

That's good to hear. Seems we have similar tastes, that Alpina Automatic chrono in the other thread looks fantastic! I sort of wish I'd never seen it. I think it would add something that my collection is missing. If I keep this up my wife is going to divorce me!what-time-is-it wrote:Yes a great watch and my best timekeeper.

Re: Non CW of the Day
Agreed, the Alpina is lovely but i think I would be buying it for the discount and not because I really want to own it. For now it's a no from me.

Non CW of the Day
Very nice Chris. Judging by the crown and the dial, I'd say it's a Stowa? But is the blue dial an LE?
Edit: I had a second look at the hands and I've realised it's not a Stowa, something another look at the crown (straight, not onion shaped) also confirms... It's doesn't seem to be an Archimede either, so, I've no idea what it is really!

Don't worry Grandad !!!!! I have alerted The Gazette and they will be in contact shortly
Crazy huh? It produces a CW watch in the NONCWOTD "thread" I'd take it back

Hope it proves "fruitful" on other days tooooooo
