Yea, I did it and I’m glad I did.

Vertex M100.

It’s awesome. I’ll do a thread later, but for now...


On the old grey Maratac nato.

Looks great Ed...but you'll sell it in 1 week, because it's too small for you.

You much funny boy.

Not likely to leave. Hard to get, hard to replace. It’s perfect on nato. 40mm diameter, 49 tip of lug to tip of lug, bit they curve nicely, only about 11.5 tall. Lightweight as it’s hand wound. Winning.

it definitely catches the light in a number of different ways. it can seem dark blue, almost black sometimes. it can be very bright blue when it catches direct sunlight or very bright indirect. and sometimes the quality of light makes it seem a bit purple. sinn got this blue right.

Thanks bud. Regardless of ones feeling on the sales model, this is a stellar watch.

I can see it being a perfect compliment to a Rolex 214270 Explorer. I may need another Explorer.
