I agree, most watches are. Just received tracking info, so it's on the way!

Good memory Geoff - I had a love for the Reverso for many years but it ran its course (which did surprise me a bit) and I sold all the ones I had. Some days I miss one/them but not enough to rebuy, which I've done in the past with other watches.
I think I am getting to a point of satisfaction and holding on to just watches that I really, really like. Famous last words for sure but/and we'll see what the future holds. Hope you've been well, it's been quite a number of years since we first "met" (online) and I wish you nothing but the best now and forever!!

The hand wind is about five years now. I had it in white. It has a pretty serious power reserve if I remember correctly. The blue looks very similar to the Pelagos. Congrats on the new watch.

There is a new square one with a blue ceramic case and is built with the bars going across from each side to contain the movement. Very interesting waiting to see what pricing is on it.

They both look perfectly matched to their respective watches. You could have told me that was OEM and I wouldn’t have questioned it.

Thanks, my bits are properly chuffed with these pairings. I purchased the sailcloth for my Polaris, but the strap was more like 20.5mm vs the advertised 21mm, it fit the Farer much better. The shell cordovan is perfect for the Habring2. I have been looking for the right strap and this is it.
