Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Just arrived.
Wow.
Technically amazing, incredibly light and comfortable, superb fit and finish. I realize the aesthetic is not everyone’s cup of tea, but this watch is a marvel.
This is the new S model, which adds a screw down crown and 100m WR, at the expense of ~1mm added thickness (now just over 6mm). The polished steel hands and markers look either silver or black depending on the light.
Here’s the pics

Comparison with the SkyD, lol on the thickness
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Congrats! I really dig the unique design and especially how thin it is. I have a feeling it would look like a dinner plate on my wrist, but I still think these are really cool.
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
At first glance, It looked like a manual wind movement until I noticed the tiny rotor. Very cool.
No, it's not Tourettes.
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Amazing

Apparently it’s platinum, to give it enough heft to do the job
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Congrats. Love it, and a tech marvel.
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
That bracelet looks like steel silk
Onyx crown setting? Nice touch. I really dig this watch.

Thanks. The crown insert is ceramic. And the bracelet is really slinky.sierra11b wrote:

Looks good and the slim bracelet is another plus.
Watch collector since 1989

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Love 'em. I want to try one of these one day. I really like the skeletonized versions, especially the tourbillon
Re: Octo Finissimo S — arrived
Can it get any cooler Dan?! ..I don’t think so !
Man, I thought it looked beautiful before you got it, but
it leaves you in awe seeing it on the wrist. Plus you
really can see the insanely high level of finishing, along
with just wonderful details within the watch. From the
sleek personality, to the disappearing, and re-appearing
markers, and numbers, this one really IS a marvel !
You could even wear this masterpiece upside down to
enjoy that movement Dan. ..Wow, you have to be
ecstatic sir. I really hope you enjoy ! A HUGE congrats
here, or there I mean !!!

Congrat's. I've always like their style with those.
