Warm Tritium Glow

Post by unixshrk » Thu Nov 13, 2014 12:23 pm

I think that's what my buddy Michael called this.

I had been missing my speedy, but I honestly no matter what I did half link full link, half half full, etc I couldn't get it comfortably fitted.

Kept looking at them and figured I'd try again sometime.

Then I saw this one. I love the open case back with the gilt movement. I wanted the hesalite crystal. This is the one.

My only reservation was the lume or in this case the lack thereof.

And say what you will about the old vs new on the bracelet, this is much more comfortable for me. Seriously many many times better.

Thanks Rahul for the easy deal

Figured I'd go see what was left, pleasant surprise.

this is, indeed, the one to own.

Chris, enjoy that puppy! It sure did hurt to let it go, but knowing it's in the hands of a great DWCer takes the sting out of it. Smooth deal too. Now let's see some shots of that gorgeous movement!
