No need for a review. Boscoe has already said it all. I really am impressed by this watch.    And a poor attempt at a tribute to the man who made it all possible!!  |

Congratulations Jeff, where it in good health!  Your photo clearly shows that the bezel is blue as well as the dial; it is truly a gorgeous watch. If you want a better tribute to the man who made you do it, you should have opened the can of tuna first!  |

Thank you Jeff. Great pix. That arrived F-A-A-S-S-ST!
Come on, tell us what you think. I know it's early, so I'll let you live with it a while before I hound you.
The blue dial is killer. I think I'm jealous.
Wear it in good health.
It's an amazing piece of work! I'm absolutely delighted for you.

BTW, Mr. Foghorn, is that an Omega blue, an Invicta blue? Can you give me some frame of reference? Thanks.

BTW, Mr. Foghorn, is that an Omega blue, an Invicta blue? Can you give me some frame of reference? Thanks. An Omega blue for sure! After 26 hours on the wrist (many of them fairly active) the watch is running at -2 secs. Chronometer worthy!! As you alluded to in an earlier post-there is just something about this watch. A certain "je ne sais quoi" (French for no clue!!!) |

Keep it up, foggy. Between us we'll make KW buy one.
After all, he's the guy who really got us both into this "mess."

Nice, Very Nice. I prefer a sapphire crystal on a watch. How durable is the Hardlex crystal ? |

Very durable, indeed. This watch is supposed to have a new and improved version, too.

Foghorn, this may be my next purchase. I love Seiko's. I have had one for about 15 years and it is trouble free. I have to wait on the next Invicta. I need a change and Seiko is calling!

Congrats Jeff! Between saving to move and saving for a new Macbook Pro, I'm getting sad that I have no watch funds for this one. I keep wondering if I should sell a couple to fund it, but I like what I have! The only thing I haven't worn lately is your old Jazzmaster - still love it, but the Oris XXL beats it as a go-to white-dial watch.
