Got mine a couple of weeks ago. Hoping this means more of these are getting out to actual enthusiasts!

Will be a great daily. Please report back with observations and comparisons to your other models. Not too many of these in the wild yet.

Wondering how it compares to Subs/GMTs if you have one?

The case does feel/look slightly bigger, more specifically wider but flatter compared to modern subs/gmt. I feel it is more delicate though because of the chamfers (id hate to ding it on the corner of the chamfer)

It is lighter on the wrist than modern 6 digits but feels similar to the older ss 4-5 digits with hollow links.

The dial is even more legible due to wider markers and matte dial. The lume is bright and beautiful.

I love it. The lugs flow into the bracelet very well and looks as if it wears pretty flat on the wrist. Appreciate the extra photos!

Looks great. Rugged and a bit different (in a good way).
I added it to my list during the last visit to my AD a couple of months ago (to pick up my 126610LN). At the time I was told it is a ‘nomination’ piece and I’m unlikely to get it this year, but was advised to add it to my list, so when it becomes more available I may get offered one. So crossing my fingers and hope to get a call in a couple of years. Will forget about it for now and carry on collecting more available pieces while I wait.
Enjoy your fantastic watch.

Is the clasp shorter than a submariner clasp?
