Thanks guys, I kinda feel the dial is more balanced on the 233 as compared to my 352.. And I love how the nubuck goes with it!

For me the 233 has it all. The movement, the crystal, the case...it is just a complete and awesome watch.

Thanks John.

Darren, I'd have to agree with you. Wish they have the gold hands version in stainless steel.. Mmm... Sounds delicious..
