精工运动型自动黑色表盘尼龙表带 男式手表

First of all, top shelf buying experience from Watch Direct. I had questions before and after purchasing, and they were promptly and thoroughly answered.

After a few weeks of daily wear, it's running 15-20sec slow, which is annoying but not yet out of spec for the 4R36 movement.

The blacked-out coating, orange graphics, layout and syringe hands is a striking combination: discreet at a distance, but with a pop of colour and style up close. At 38mm case diameter, this is true to form for a military field watch, and I wasn't looking for a dinner plate or a flight deck instrument on my wrist. Other colorways (i.e. beige, khaki, green), case finishes (i.e. brushed or polished) and graphics (i.e. white on black, black on white, 1-12 Arabic numerals) did not scratch the itch. The gray on black for the 12hr scale is useless, but I knew that from the website photos before I bought the watch!

The strap looked like a perfect match while wearing it in a food service job: orange leather against the skin, with a nylon exterior for some splash and abrasion resistance . What could go wrong?

That strap is VERY stiff and NOT ideal for big wrists. I have an 8-inch/20-cm wrist give or take. With the small case size, the lug-to-lug doesn't span the width of my wrist. The strap sticks out straight like two planks of wood, and it doesn't start bending until the pin buckle holes. Either I wear it loose letting the watch flop about my wrist, or the strap becomes a tourniquet with one pin hole…
