Why We Love This Watch

Its hard to pin this watch under a single category, while the case is unmistakably rugged and tool-y in its aesthetic, the dial says otherwise. Crisp applied arabic numerals with alternating triangle indices on the dial simply exudes class and elegance, the dauphine hands only makes the dressy appeal more prominent. The creamy pale white dial gladly welcomes any touch of color, different straps can change the personality of the watch. A black lizard grain for that dressy black tie event or a blue suede for that casual stroll around the mall — the possibilities are endless!

A Closer Look

This watch is in good condition. It has just been serviced and tells accurate time. The case has minor hairline scratches, while the dial shows some signs of aging through its patina. The watch has no issues, except the movement is a bit lose inside the case. It doesn't present any problem other than the fact that you can hear the the movement clank inside as you wear it, which goes almost unnoticed unless paid really close attention to.
