I paid $178 with black strap . The $198 watch is the same version with a better strap . It wasn't out at the time I purchased , but I would have paid the extra $20 to see if the blue strap was any good . To be honest though I have never bought a rep were the strap wasn't an instant swap .

Could you tell me please the strap size? I assume it's 20mm and 18mm at the buckle end? (For the 31mm version)
Thanks
It' is almost my wifes birthday so I don't have to think about a present. Not ordering yet, i am looking forward too see the first review and the pics!

I ordered one recently but was told only the smaller size is available . The smaller one is really nice but a little too small for me

Have you guys seen the new Santos Dumont yet? It looks really elegant with the silver dial and comes with a quartz movement.
Hopefully one of the rep makers will rep this model throughout the year. I'm a big fan of my quartz Tank since I can just pick it up and wear it without having to set the time etc.

BEEN TO JEWELLER AND TRIED IT , very light , felt like a cheap rep to be honest !
I really wanted this one in the larger size, unfortunately I was told only the smaller is available about a month after I ordered it. I am pretty disappointed, if anyone has the larger 31.5 in stainless steel I would pay above the purchase price for it.
Great news! That means the rep will be spot on lol
Just got my QC pictures from Puretime, How do they look?
Would appriciate your opinions.

Did you order the large or small version?
I ordered the large and it turns out the QC pics they sent me was of the small.
The reason I noticed this despite being near identical is because on my QC pics the little metal circle thing in the middle of the hands (sorry i don't know it's name) was bigger than on TD photos of the large and more in size with the smalls. I just wonder if that's the same here?
If you ordered the small then no problem. If you order the larger then you may want to ask them to measure it and double check just in case factory sent wrong one like they did to me.
Other than that I don't see any noticeable flaws but I got bad eyes lol.
Has anyone picked up the large recently? I've pinged a couple of TDs to see if the rose gold version is available again yet.

To reinvigorate this dead horse, it seems as if there is another wave of the Santos Dumont that was just released (Puretime)

There are a couple more models, but I couldn't be bothered to copy and paste them all!

How did you find them? They aren't showing up for me in search.
Edit - I found them in new releases.
