I think it'll look nice with some patina. I don't think anyone will say the hands are too small.

Meh. I saw this one when they first announced it. It doesn't do much for me.... but then I don't go for bronze watches anyway.

I do have a preorder in for their Estoril 300 though. :whistle:

The hands are the best looking feature of this watch.

I kind of like this one. Reminds me of Anonimo. I like the hands. Might be time to start getting into the micros again. All the stuff I really want is to expensive.

I have seen some of the pics of the Estoril and it looks pretty nice even though it is a copy of the SM300.

I'm the proud owner of one. I'm really worth a lot more than the asking price if you compare it to the bronze Morays and Shark Divers. I love it from all angles and on a bunch of straps

I'd definitely buy a stainless version of it in blue if they made them but I doubt they will.

Thanks a lot, everyone ! I was worried cus everyone was saying it wears like a 42mm (maybe 43mm) and it kinda does but the lug to lug helped me jump over the fence. My wrist is almost 8.5in so I almost didn't get it.

I think it's decent, but I can't wear bronze/brass stuff. :(

I like the dial and the hands but the round case seems too "round" for me...
