the second hand on the gen 2008 version is an arrow. They could have fixed this easy.
Otherwise it looks good.

I need to correct my statement, this looks like a fantasy watch, it is not a stealfish and it is no Colt, what the heck is that watch? Colt has a quartz movement.

Yeah was thinking that, the new steelfish numbers 12,3,6,9 are a solid font and the rest are a hollow font? think the twins are running out of ideas.

i am telling right now....

i do not believe that this is a swiss movement.

i am convinced, asia has stepped up producing awesome looking clones of swiss ETA movements. i do not believe there is a gen swiss movement available.

in the best case scenario..... old stock movements / refurb / Hybrids

but hey....they seem to work well. so far.

Stefan, the problem are the numbers on the display, SOSF has only 3, 6 , 9 12...on this picture you have 1 - 12...this is COLT model with quartz
