[@Fears_Watch_Owners_Enthusiasts]

Great review Thanks for the shout out 😊

Own a beige version. No complaints. Love it on my 7 inch wrist.

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

fair enough! all preference

[@LivLiviley]

I'm with Terry on this one. I do like that shade of green but it's too small

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

Seems to be the consensus!

[@samturnertimepieces]

Perhaps if the dial had more texture and was less glossy I might like it more

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

thats a good take honestly

[@wristopia4101]

Baltic are just too small for me unfortunately :(

[@LivLiviley]

Too small for me as well. God damn my 7 inch wrist

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

I like small tbh... just picked up a 36mm watch

[@sxpientisat]

French brands usually have nice quality tropic straps. Did not try this one tho, the best ones are by Wolbrook. They are something special.

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

I'd be interested to hear what you think

[@WAMwatches]

The Lume is nice but overall I don’t like the look. Maybe a darker green. But that’s a good price and if you like the style that’s not a bad buy.

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

yeah great piece if the styling and stuff is for you. just overall made me feel meh

[@wristopia4101]

Funny you like the 37/20mm dimensions just because of changing straps rather than its design aesthetic. Nobody seems to care about the design (width, length, shape, gap to strap end, type of strap end) of lugs, which is odd on a thing that gets so microscopically critiqued IMO.

[@WatchYourselfJorge]

there isn't much to say on the lug DESIGN though.. just standard lug design? if they were interesting I'd have something to say, like VC's tear drops lugs for example

[@wristopia4101]

@@WatchYourselfJorge Non shaped lugs have a lot of variation (not that they normally need a mention). Position of spring bar holes is one I missed off. Swapping a bracelet to an aftermarket strap (OEM straps obviously know where the holes are) can give some wild looks. Did you know there is a brand that has two holes per lug to compensate for this? The bracelet ones are nearer the end of the lugs, but it has another set nearer the case in case you fit a strap. A slightly larger lug width also helps with taper and clasp width options.

[@Wintermute-088]

What's to critique? 20mm lug width on a 37mm watch is standard, it's not even something that needs to be commented on.

[@wristopia4101]

@@Wintermute-088 Read what I said over and over until you understand it. I completely agree 20mm is probably best for 37mm. That said ..... Why not 19 ; )

No rubber strap is ever good.
