    At 41 I wouldn’t be able to resist that one! Beautiful watch.

    Alpina watches are very good. I have an alpina stratomatic !! , a gift from my father in 1967 for my 17th birthday. It still works perfectly. Even better then my rolex.

    The size diameter thing is a on going frustration with many manufacturers. They’re either 38-39 or 42-44 and my sweet spot is 40-41 mm on a 7 in. Wrist.

    I wish it wasn't quite as big but I love mine anyway. It's my everyday watch and first automatic. Kinda sucks that the SW200 in mine has been running +15-20 seconds since the day I got it 3 and a half months ago.

    • @JustWatchreviews
      @JustWatchreviews  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Nicholas, I'd bring it to a local watchmaker and have them regulate it, also check to see if it might have become magnetized, that could cause a big swing in timekeeping. Cheers!

    • @JustWatchreviews
      @JustWatchreviews  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's made by Buck Knives, I don't recall the model # though. It's a lower priced option from them, does not have great edge retention.

    Nice watch, but there are hints of fraudulent design theft... the lugs are from Omega, the red triangle pip from Rolex/Tudor. Lots to like about it too: coin-edge bezel, signed crown, nice caseback engaraving, nice hand set, clean date window. However, nothing that peaks my interest with this watch - it's TOO safe in design... it would fade away in most collections.

      Or for those unable to acquire the other brands mentioned, this affordable option would allow one to have many traits in one robust design, I like the fact it was produced prior to the Citizen acquisition when FC was still independent, the larger size doesn't bother me in fact actively using the watch hiking,skating or biking will work for me.

    I like the look of the watch itself very much. But supplying a dive watch on leather makes it look like costume jewelry.

    • @larry2323
      @larry2323 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's not actually considered a dive watch thus the function of the bezel is birectional and not unidirectional. Which in my opinion is far more handy unless you are a true deep sea diver
