If you can pull of the case size it's a killer watch. For the same price though I like the 5167r a little better because of the 40mm sizing

I love this watch. Have only the original green strap. With a 6 3/4 inch wrist, I like the fit more than a 5167 or 5164 which I also have.

Own one and enjoy wearing it very much. The white gold has a nice warm glow and suits the khaki green color. I it’s very comfortable too. I don’t feel it’s necessary to change the strap as it matches the dial color.

Actuality it’s not too tight and not sure why leaving the sticker is a problem.

This watch gets the most wrist time in my collection by far, such a great colour way. I mostly wear 40mm however the thin 42mm case still wears well on my 7” wrist, maybe even more comfortably than my 5167.
I did buy an aftermarket white rubber strap and it worked well with the white hour markers but nothing is as good as the green.

I prefer the size of the 5167 on me but it's really wrist size dependent. Color wise, lovely watch!
