Nice, but I just spent that $ on a polished concrete floor for my digs in the last week.

I think with 30% off it so I’d be a buyer had I the fund. But they’ll be cheap used too

It’s really a big watch. Lots of dial. Long. It was borderline for me but I have a smaller wrist at 6.8”

Most likely. It’ll stick out the edge of your wrist and straps won’t drape around the wrist id imagine. I’d go try one locally first

Seeing as its a LE of 50 I doubt they will depreciate at all used, most likely they will command a premium.
If anyone sees one at a discount let me know!

BP has horrible resale but I could be wrong. Also it’s not a color for everyone
AD should discount it

Color is nice, I just think it would look better with a black bezel insert, due to the satin brushed case. The sunburst dial with the cream markers looks awesome.

I'm not a fan of this "just make a green version" trend.

Wonder what would be the next “in” color. Blue is going out, green is the new one. Years ago I had a yellow dial Festina dive watch. That was a fun summer/beach watch.

Hate to say it because I’m an anti-fan of it but 2-tone is coming back hard. So I expect to see a two-tone BPFF next
