@chrisgravel71573 жыл бұрын
Tried on both and was impressed with the improvements, although I would change out the crystal on the turtle asap for a dommed saphire with no date blob - its just too big and looks stuck on. The White King Samurai was hard to resist that and the new ish 025 turtle - the blue-black sunburst dial is amazing - I would rather just mod that TBH and could do that for the same $ as a king. After looking at everything from an MM200 down (not new reduced OMG I love the Green special edition) I ended up buying a 3rd gen Sumo for a tad more than the Kings. As good as these updates are I prefer the Sumo case, level of finish and 70hr movt. Still would love that white King Samuari though for everyday/sports wear and am starting to hunt for a deal on one....Thanks for another great video Bruce
