    London, I am NOT a cockney, though I live nearer to Bow Bells than most "cockneys" do.

    Can't fault the build quality and finish.
    The Bezel is really nice, there's no slack and the action is firm and positive to use, as are the chronograph pushers.
    Does need a better strap though, it's nice and supple, but the buckle is a bit large for my taste and I don't think it really suits the style of the watch, but that's easily changed

    I wasn't a fan of the strap or buckle either but I've been giving it a try and I'm warming to it, although I will change the buckle at some point.
