Here are a few pics of mine. I have only found one wrist shot on isofrane.

I never realized these were so chunky. Looks good, though.

Jason got back to me about the black dial...


The black dial will be done in a matte finish.

After a couple of rounds of prototypes, I still wasn’t able to get black sunburst that I was happy with or that was different enough from a very dark grey colour.

I think it looks awesome! Loved the few that I have owned and tragically flipped. That version it's a real looker!

Guess you did, but not in a way dim-witted, old guys understand.

Hey Barry,

What size is your wrist? I have a 6.75" flat topped wrist. Trying to figure out if my wrist is large enough for this.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

i think if you look at the wrist shot pics Jason takes on instagram, they're all on his wrist, which i think i remember him saying is about 6.75".
