Could be worse Steve. At least you've got a job still.

Oh, and are you working from home? So therefore get the opportunity to wear a watch all day?

Its not the smallest watch in the world at 44mm and does sit quite high on the wrist, but only a couple of mm higher than my sharkmaster. The strap is 24mm which I think adds to the feel of bulk, but again its not o.t.t. I have a 7 1/2" wrist and im totally comfortable with the size. I think smaller than a 7" wrist would struggle.

Nice weight, quality feel, priced well, and with a bronze and black bezel to interchange, it'll keep me interested for a while!

I know it wont be to everyones taste but imho its the dogs danglies...!!!

A bold choice, Sir. Not seen an Apollon on here for quite some time. :clap: :clap:

As another seven and a half incher, I fully approve. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks guy! I knew it would be a beastie but I like the individuality of it. Its not trying to be something else.

It was between this and the marine officer grau. I plummed for this purely on price, as my first steinhart. Safe to say im impressed!

Obviously I now need the chrono apollon, AND the marine officer grau :silent:

For me my Week of the Chronograph #5 follows the Battle of Britain theme by commemorating it, as the GasGasBones 6B Mk3 Scramble.

Looks a tad small on my wrist? It is; only 38mm.

OP 36mm for today. Discontinued white grape dial. New dial colours make it a completely different offering.
