SLA017 doesn't have the Hi-Beat movement, so I guess there's that as well...

Just saw this. Pared down my collection quite a bit but the SLA037 made the cut. Still love it, keeps better time than my iPhone, and I have it on right now.

Actually looking at adding the SLA039 to appease my OCD-cant do the Tuna way to big.

Both are great



The 037 is my favourite watch of all time, something about these blue 55yr trilogy pieces just hit right with me

Nice, I have both of these too, plus the tuna, which I got a ridiculously good deal on
