Jeff,

For now I will just have to take your word for it. For now it simply reminds me of a Rolex Datejust...not by a long-shot a favorite of mine. And as for the feel at the wrist...my big wrist is enjoying my new "too lumpy" Carrera Reference 1158 right now.

My mind, however is always open. I know that both or our truths can be true. When I find my flea-market or back alley deal I will put it on my wrist and give it a fair chance.

Best
