Unwrapping my first one... 177L from Lay!

[drzoidberg]

Don't want to hijack this thread...but rather than start a new one I too have just received my 177L from Lay. Dispatched 18th and delivered 21st, incredibly quick to the UK!

I'm also over the moon, such a stunning rep. I also have this on order from Strap Culture which should set it off even more.

My only question is what cloth I should be using to clean the face of the watch. I have a number of microfibers' but I'm not sure if they will harm the AR as I know they can have detrimental effects on certain surfaces (plastics especially). Any tips much appreciated.

All in all, top marks to Lay. This was my first 44mm, and on a 6.5" wrist I was having doubts prior to ordering, not any more...I think it fits perfectly.

Looking great drzoidberg.
Wear it well!

Can't wait to get my 177L.
I expect it to arrive on Monday or Tuesday.

Will post pics when I've got it.

Ordered mine from puretime as Lay was closed for the time being. Soon to receive the QC pics now

This strap looks perfect for that 177

You and I have exactly the same taste! I just ordered this strap 1 day before you. Hahah. Let us whether it has the same weathering and texture as the pics when it arrives.

I also ordered another alligator strap from Kain.

where do you guys order from since Lay is out? Does puretime have the exact watch as Lay coming from the same factory? All the specs are the same. I am still a noob, sorry for the dumb questions!

I was just looking at these tonite actually, trying to figure out how to hide a purchase such as this from the wifey. She'd be none the wiser I got a new watch - until the credit card statement came

The lume is good?? My 111h's lume is terrible...I want to get it done, but I've had issues with my movement and would be pissed if I had a lume job done to it and it crapped out on me again. I'd almost rather buy a new movement with a lume job and just put it in my case, since I already had the AR removed on the sapphire. OR, I could get this watch if the lume is killer. OR do both...
