The bezel looks really really well done. PureTimes pictures are a lot more clearer. I may have to pick one of these up

Ladies! Anybody who want's and buys the CHS movement will get what they deserve the second time they try to set the time. The only people who can even hope to make them last longer than the average life time span of a tamagotchi, are bomb defuses or divorce settlement lawyers specialising in disputes of cats and other pets

You know what's a bigger annoyance then an ICHS? A dead watch - although we mostly live in free countries here, so buy whatever you want. I'm just some guy on the internet with a profile picture of cat who is trying to help
I have 2 Chs (GMT and Polar explorer 2) and they are both working fine after about 18 months. I set time and wind them just like my gen GMTs and it's all good so far.

Noob question but is the hour hand independently adjustable on those watches?

BP makes the best full wrapped bracelets. Datewheel is over magnified on this model too compared to gen.

This is not "overmagnified" (or at least not ONLY overmagnified)

The font barely fits in the window - that's a font size problem. That two is partially hidden by the inside of the date window, but the 8 ends about in the right place. It's also closer to both the top and the bottom of the date window.

The font is too damn big. Considerably so.

Really tempted to pull the trigger on this just to see it in real life.

Wouldn't count on arf if there datejust date wheel is anything to go by.

haha, thats quite true but it can always be swapped out if everything else is pretty spot on and worth getting the watch.

Misleading post - the date mag is too big on all ARFs as well. Also Noob is a crap-shoot at the moment - you have no idea what you’re going to get.

I’d like to order this. But I like the new bluesy from Noob as well. By the time I make up my mind a decent BLRO will be out.
