Just received mine today, rose with black dial. Pleased to see that the crystal has AR coating.

The only point that lets it down is the strap. I have small wrists and this watch has the fold over strap (no holes) with deployant clasp. The issue I have is the long part folds over all the way up to the lugs. Unsightly and uncomfortable. Additionally, reasonably priced replacement straps of this type are not easy to come by.
If anyone has any recommendations I'd be grateful if they can share.

Have not ordered yet but the 21mm/18mm band is similar to some Tank Cartier and you can find some on ebay here with a seller that is advertised on this forum (or RWG)

If you do order from this guy, can you come back and leave a review ? I'm interested but still hesitating on the colour I'd like to go with (maybe a red-ish brown)

I guess the makers aren't willing to thin out the case by using a 2892-derived automatic?

Hi everyone... this is my first post so apologies if I am supposed to do things differently. Just wanted to ask if anyone has any experience of the "DRIVE LARGE DATE, RETROGRADE SECOND TIME ZONE AND DAY/NIGHT INDICATOR" - saw it at the shop and it looked amazing!!

Just got my gray/black dial version today from Watchoutlet, and I'm pretty fucking impressed, apart from the strap of course.
There's only .7mm difference in thickness, which once worn doesn't show. For the 200CAD it's a wonderful dressed watch even though I usually wear 34-38mm watches it doesn't feel too big (considering I have 7.5inches wrists).
I'd definitely recommend it!

I bought the tourbillon about a year ago — pretty sweet watch ...
