Cool! The bronze bezel is a little goofy IMHO, but otherwise a cool piece

I like the bronze bezel version on the green strap.

I like the bronze bezel as well.

That said, the stainless Doxa Army is a bit underwhelming given I've owned my Synchron on a BOR for about a year now, not to mention the copy-makers with their versions being on the market for the past 8 months.

While having the Doxa version would be nice, I'm don't think I'm going to trade in my Synchron version in order to fund it.

Lol Image that’s what you find goofy about the watch?? The whole thing is goofy. Super quirky watch.
I admit i like this model and the bronze accents marries well with the green

In the super funky 70s era Doxa design (which I love FWIW), yeah the bezel strikes me as weird. The black version I'm all about though!

Just like the Synchron Military, I really like these.
I am a fan of the green/bronze bezel. Very cool.

Bronze accent would be a hard pass for me (I hate anything remotely gold'ish - just me;whatever works for you). But overall I like it (In stainless) and it's not too far from 300T money.

At least instead of the super macho military type imagery associated with a lot of these watches they instead chose to show it more realistically on the wrist of someone quite refined sipping his espresso and eating a croissant.
