The new overseas is amazing, love how you can change the straps so easily and change the look.

Beautiful watch. I love the blue dial, simplicity of the three hands and the interchangeable straps. Great watch.

Superb !! VC is a great manufacturer with an incredible, long history. A lot of horological pedigree there..

Great choice! I love The overseas...and branching outside of Rolex is rather liberating if you ask me.

You beat me to it!
I am about to do the same thing. The only haute horological sports watch that is priced reasonably any more. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Winter is a good time for the leather strap, I'm using it on mine now too (also blue date model). Nice watch, congrats!

Thanks for the positive feed back. Wish I could take better pictures but this gives an idea of how rich the blue of the VC dial is. Not saying its better than the others, but is different and VERY blue.

Nice! Congratulations! I recently finally had an overseas on my wrist for the first time killing time at the mall and it’s a really nice watch on the wrist! Pictures don’t always show it

The three hander is far better than the chrono. Love the blue. it's very intense. Beautiful watch and congratulations!!! If you dont mind us asking and sharing, what was the price/discount that you got it as the list price is above the AP/RO.

i bought it pre-owned - so in the neighborhood of 20% off retail. Excellent shape, complete set, less than a year old. Based on my research I felt comfortable with the deal but not sure if it was great by any means. Certainly the older generation Overseas depreciate big time - at least from what I've seen. I'm not a flipper so I'm enjoying it - money well spent in that regard at least.

I really like the chrono too - but it's bigger. I'd like to see the dual time in person, it's the same size as the 3 hand. Dial may be crowded in the metal but it looks good in pictures.
