    Speedy Thursday with Superior C&B. Black nato really suits this watch IMO.








    Sent from Maxwell Smart's shoe.

    Very nice, Wayne, congrats! As a Zenith fan, I could definitely see owning that (although I'd prefer one like William's tri-color if I were in the market, which I'm not). I think it's silly to criticize using the EP movement in a three hander--why not?

    That's fantastic! And the fact it uses an El Primero is definitely a big plus.

    Congrats, Wayne.

    Ultimately, I went in a different direction, but I’d be very happy to own that.

    Thanks. I obviously see nothing wrong with an El Primero with 3 hands :-)

    These do get overlooked in the do-nearly-everything category. 100M WR, sapphire, less than 12mm thick, compact lug to lug, 50+hr PR 36000 bph movement, decent lume. I think it looks great in all 3 dial colors, too.
