Yeah something like a 12 step process to do the champagne dial. It's probably the best looking champagne dial I've ever seen. There's so much more depth to it than you see in photos and it changes drastically in different lighting conditions. For the price it's a terrific watch.

My only complaints so far involve the well known and often discussed bracelet deficiencies. But if you got a good fit on that 375 this one should fit just fine. I'm sort of in between sizes. It was fitting tight so I had them remove a half link and add a full link. Now it fits a little loose (but still an improvement). I'm the poster child for the need for a micro adjustable bracelet
Yes Mike, the SBGA373 is the one I'm after. It would make a good set of spring drives for me. I played around with my links this past weekend. Ended up taking out 2 full links and added back 2 half links. Been wearing the SBGA375 Sunday and to work all this week. So far perfect fit. It's only loose at night when I'm sitting around watch TV for a couple of hours. Other than that it fits perfectly.
