Looks like I might be buying a micro again, if it's not an unreasonable price. JLC movement!

Cool looking too bad it's a 46MM case...
Interested in seeing the price...

I love these guys, though I do wish that their logo didn't look like it was grinning at me.

Very nice! Too big for my taste but it did send me looking at their 43mm offerings.

I look at the logo and see db...hard to want a watch with that on the dial...dumb I know, but can't be unseen. Otherwise, it's gorgeous.

The quality of the dial, hands, bezel is pathetic ... even if its intentionally.

I like that the dial looks like it's made out of leather or something with a similar texture.

Agreed.

Still don't like the logo, though.

I dig the idea of these retro vintage style watches. No two look alike.
