Yeah, pleasure now and potentially regret later, or loads of pleasure later and potentially regret now and later.

Oh well, there are worse things I suppose. At least it's not a quartz. :lol:

I have all my stuff sent there because she's always home and it's a pain when a carrier calls and leaves a card.
I work 5 and a half days a week so hardly ever home for deliveries.
Would normally be able to get it in the evening but other commitments tonight. 8)

Mine has just arrived! :heart:

Pictures and a full review to be ready at http://www.outsidecontext.com by the end of next week

Basic package image:

(My iPhone camera cant do it justice).

First impressions are very favorable. I went for the leather strap and it works very well. The face is clean and very clear, a very different look for me after my Corax. The movement is smooth and the build quality looks excellent. The blue dial changes hue in different lights but it is always a rich colour, I think Chris has done another very fine job and I am very happy.

Happy Christmas all!

I'm pleased with it, very nice.
Mine has arrived the same way with the strap unconnected,been trying to get it on for the last half hour but no joy.Looks like a trip to the watch repairers before i've even worn it ,not the way I would expect a £220 watch to arrive,but it does look great . :( :)

That isn't very good though, is it? After all the wait and money and they can't attach a strap?

I agree. I assume that the priority was getting them delivered rather than fitting those very awkward rubber straps! Looks like those that ordered the steel or leather bands are OK. :shock:
