UG seems to be popping up left right and center at the moment. Nice addition to the collection!

Nice watch and a good find I agree. I own several 42-44 mm watches that I feel wear well on my 7 1/4” wrist. Wearability often depends on L2L length, case thickness, ratio of dial to case size, amount of lug turndown, etc. I think knee jerk reactions to size are silly, it’s difficult to judge fairly till you try it on.

Any thoughts on the Chronos that JS has for $2,750? Thanks Chris!!

Nice dial but the case is average. It'd be better if case had a shape like Oris Big Crown Pointer Date.

well unfortunately you already sold it out and the version without lume and the silver dial is really hard to accept the white date with

Lol at the tiny watch brigade telling you "wah! its too big" . It's the branding. No one is really looking for a Universal Geneve. It's not a great name even with lots of marketing behind it.

42mm is rougher on a lot of wrists.

What is neo-vintage?

"This has Lume!" Lol. So does every ali express watch.

Why would you not buy from Watch Gang?

@someguy003-l3n 13 hours ago

42mm...probably why it sold so badly. They are meant to be 36mm dress watches

Sorry, not trying to be a hater. Just my opinion. The reason why it's cheap is because it's a super boring typical 2000s watch. Like when all brands still focused on function over form. Boring case and boring dial. The movement and case back is amazing, I'll admit.

But you can really date watch from the 2000s. Anything post 2020 from a lot of brands are a lot more refined and focused on design. Which I appreciate.
