Breitlight Pair!

It's good to have few Superquartz handy, more so if they are Breitlight!

Presenting - Endurance Pro & Colt Skyracer!

The Skyracer is such a great watch. Its the one watch I’d have no trouble wearing in any situation and it’s so comfortable. The only downside is that I wish there was another strap option.

It is lighter than Colt Skyracer. It wears smaller on the wrist and you just forget once you wear it. So comfortable!

Colt Skyracer has two options - green and black. You want more options?

CS is better with numeral lume as it has field dial. EP's non-lumed 369 are very sharp and good to look at!

My only problem with the Skyracer is the way they built the case with the lugs so you’re limited to either of the OEM rubber straps. I’ve got no issue with just having the black strap mine came on, I just wish at time it had the more traditional lugs so there were more options.

Very nice! TY Funny how a lot of the readers comments on Hodinkee were so negative, yet there is a wait time now to purchase one.

I’ve handled the Pro in person. I think it’s great.

That I agree. The original inspiration piece for Skyracer was also similar regarding strap settings. Checkout the Original reference.

Finally had the chance to handle EP, As good as it looks in Maxys pics, It looks stunning in person! 44mm was perfectly proportioned, the dial is beautiful!
