Thanks! No screw down crown, but still 100m WR rated; spec-wise it’s probably the one thing it’s missing to make a perfect all-rounder. I also like the fact that the butterfly clasp has an adjustable clasp - only one position, but still... Likewise, the deployant for the leather strap has the same thing (less useful than on a bracelet admittedly, but still...).watchaholic wrote:Like that a lot. Fume dial and allen head screws really set it off nicely. Crown protectors would have gone nicely with the industrial look. Screw down crown?

Non CW of the Day
Is it an IWC?
No, it’s a Melbourne Watch Co Burnley. The dial is a fabulous green colour (and really is a lovely green) but 90% of the time the dial looks black - only occasionally do you see a flash of green as it catches the light.
Anyone looking for a black dialled watch would be perfectly happy with it. Even though I was expecting a green dialled watch, I nonetheless like it. It runs a Miyota 9015 and seems to be built very well indeed. I’d dismissed their earlier models as mere fashion watches, but they’ve improved in leaps and bound of late - this is a great example of that improvement. This is what it mostly looks like (excuse the shocking photo).

Re: Non CW of the Day
watching you fail in your quest for a “one watch” has been great entertainment
