    Congrats mate. Looks nice , not toooo big.
    A flat strap with self colour stiching should make it shrink a bit

    Mine's gained 10 seconds in just over a week. Got some that do that in a day.

    I think you mis-read that--ten seconds in a week, not a day. Very good accuracy.

    Is he seen wearing a watch at any time in the movie? If so, I never noticed.

    I do believe Longines has used images of Bogart in their marketing materials for the Evidenza in the past as well.
