I like it but SwissWatchGang said the L2L is 52mm which is too big for my wrist. Interesting watch for those with the wrist though

I’m showing my age here, I loved these watches as a kid and still do and thinking of purchasing this watch if still available.

Specifications say Lug to Lug is 42.2mm, hope it isn’t 52mm ?

I’m still researching to confirm sizing etc

I appreciate this info but it worries me as i have a small 6.5” wrist.

Too bad we cant try it on as it’s online ordering only.


Looks fantastic, might still consider it :)

Measurements I’ve seen on the internets: 33.6mm (W) x 14.64mm (T) x 42.4mm (LTL)

“ The watch is 33.6mm in diameter, and 42.4mm lug-to-lug, with a case thickness of 14.64mm. That might seem large, for what is an ostensibly a rectangular watch. However, the the lack of lugs makes it wear much smaller. And it fit well on my modestly-sized 6.75 inch wrist.”

At 4.50 into the video, Marko said the length is 42mm but the L2L is 52mm. Marko has very big wrist you can see how the watch sit in this video.

I love everything about this .. almost.

why does it have plastic bracelet inserts?

I would love it more if it has user serviceable battery door thingie.
