Incoming . Sapphire Speedmaster

Today got the call to get it .

It wears better than the previous one
It feels better on the wrist
It does look way better

So far no cuts or whatever the watch was accused of .

I think if we are to believe what we read on the internet, then your hand will be completely cut off by tomorrow morning.

Congrats! You’d better wear it on a bund strap so the razor-sharp case doesn’t slice your hand off.

The dial looks ok.

Is the fit and finish on the back of the lugs and the movement an improvement on my old sapphire sandwich or is it the pix?

Have you seen the dial in person? The dial has a quality about it that doesnt translate 1:1 in pictures. The way the sub-dials catch the light - the depth of the new dial is impressive. I suggest you see one in the flesh before making a judgement

Congrats! I just upgraded to one today, the sapphire version is incredible! I love my 1861 Hesalite but the details on the 3861 are on a different level.
