Tried on and checked out a few different micros. It was packed in there. Some interesting stuff as well as some watches that I didn't bother with.

I rather like the Aevig. Looked the the NTH watches when the were on pre-order, but decided against them, although one of them (champagne) was quite tempting.gwells wrote:
Would be very useful to see these in real life though and get an idea of what they're really like.

Re: Stopped by a microbrand meetup today
i said elsewhere my biggest issue with the aevig is that the crowns seem too large for me. the watch itself looks very nice in person, though. and i like the blue. very subtle.
the "g" is for Greg...
Re: Stopped by a microbrand meetup today
I think they're one of the few to get the crowns close to just right. Most modern interpretations of the Super Compressors fall short with the crowns being too small IMO. I guess goes to show how different we all are in what we like.gwells wrote:i said elsewhere my biggest issue with the aevig is that the crowns seem too large for me. the watch itself looks very nice in person, though. and i like the blue. very subtle.
First time I've seen those NTH, they're pretty good too and I might even prefer the crowns used there. I wish someone would make a 36mm modern take on the SC. Anyway thanks for the pics, would love to be able to venture into a meet-up like that.
[EDIT] just had a look, man this one is nice.

^^ That's the model I was tempted by, but reality and discretion got the upper hand...
