Nobody yet. Set for release in January 2016.

Looks like it will be too big for me, alas.

"It should be noted that Bulova says his was was indeed a handmade one-off for lunar use when Scott became the seventh man to walk on the moon, and the first to drive the lunar rover, so that answers all of those requests about where you can find the same watch from the 1970s – you can't."

I'm still confused on the size. That last communication stated they measured the case at the 10 to 4 position...so maybe it is around 42 from 9 to 3? Why would they specifically measure the case from 10 to 4 specifically to answer Dave's inquiry??? Who does that?

I'm reserving my decision til it comes out next year. Looks fantastic design wise.

I just spent the last 5 minutes holding my calipers to the phone at the lug knowing it's 20mm and it's 45mm on the nose minus the crown from 9 to 3. With the crown ~49. :shock: Probably not the best method of measuring but in 2D is looks massive... Hopefully in 3D the curvature of the case and lugs makes it wear like 42. :rolleyes:

At 42mm it gives this one 19mm lugs and a reason not to GAW the heuerville in the next 15 minutes. :lol:
