It is one of the new black strap (original II black) that came with the watch via their website. Just in awe here.. so much fun to wear!

This is my second watch from the company and the build quality is comparable to my 111. I have a bronzo (Brass) that is a manual wind and this one is an automatic. It is just a lot of fun to wear without costing an arm and a leg!

That is lovely Fred, but i dont think it would see any wrist time competing with the 360:)

Comparable enough! Really... very nice built quality on this... does not feel cheap like some of the knock off's.

Did you sell your 190?


As nice as those homage watches are, I can't imagine them competing for wrist time with the likes of a 190...
