LOVE this watch. I'ts definitely on my list to try in the future, the only thing I'm not sure about is the squared off hands. It's just a personal taste thing, but I have never seen one in person so I might just my mind if I was to see one in the flesh. Beautiful watch and good quality video!

Great video. This is the Zodiac colorway I feel the most conflicted about. On one hand, it’s undoubtedly my favorite color combination and overall design in the catalog. On the other hand, it’s one that doesn’t seem to suit my personality when I strap it on the wrist. At least I can enjoy it vicariously through you! My favorite tropic color is grey, and I’d pair it with my blue AquaTerra.
