Will do a review in due course - this weekend. But my first impressions are positive. David continues to refine his manufacturing process, and the quality is consequently improving.

If you already have a Davidsen 195 you likely can discern the improvments.

Here's some photos of the new 195 in good company (172 & 127):

These shots look great - I like the back ground colors! The watches look awesome - you have quite the collection now.

Dials on Davidsens watches???

For some reason, the font or the print color on David's watches always look off. Maybe it's just me. I guess I would love to see a sandwich dial 111 or 112 from him that looks more accurate.

Aside from that, he offers a great package of non-recessed pin, super lumed watches at a fair price.

Great pics! As CJ mentioned, the background color adds for a very nice, very pleasant contrast!

Very well done! And the watch ain't bad either ;)

Think Josh may still have it. I love my 172 - it's underrated, IMO. It's really grown on me - and keeps the best time of all of mine!

I also really like the contrast of the 172's SS bezel & Ti :)

Thanks for the feeback - you may guess that I do now try to do this w/ intent - Pugwash showed us what is possible. I have seen some amazingly good photos - by others - that even leave "Chronos" in the shade.

CJ has a sharp eye: he noticed that I had placed the watches in a dedicated, "sky", background. This is something I'm planning to do in the future, as it seems to me (and happily for others) that our watches are more pleasing to the eye given certain surroundings.

These settings can be colour, or objects. for e.g., CJ caught my eye once with his watch + cigar box series.

All in good fun - and if we also show the watches accurately that leads to informed consumers.
