I am not a bronze guy, but the Evant aesthetic translates well to the materials.

This should sell out fast. There aren't many smaller bronze options. This one is perfect.

Damn. Of course a green dial/bronze case pops up a week later I plunked down more for an Pinion Axis in the same configuration. These look great. I wonder if they have the better lug hole placement.

Looks good and definitely well priced but
Did they fix the lug hole position?

They adjusted them slightly for the blue version and I would imagine the same for these. I'm sure a quick email to Anders could confirm.

Eric - the first version of these had lug holes way too far out for most tastes. Strap gap city.

I enjoyed the one I had, and the strap gap on NATO, canvas, or leather was not an issue for me. It looked like shit on thin straps, though.
These bronze ones look great and are cheaper than the standard versions for some reason.

These are very tempting and would likely work great in a thick canvas

Yeah, I agree. Initial reaction was DAMN, that's smokin', but as I looked at it more, those bugged me. Otherwise, very well executed.

These guys seem to be hitting their stride with the blue fume going forward. Killer looking piece.
