Not bad at all....
A worthy option for someone looking for an entry point into G&S. A more manageable size for those without large wrists, and a I would imagine a reasonable price point. The dial is amazing to boot. Darren
Thanks Darren for your comments!
Even if I understand that from a "Purists" point of view, a Midnight Sun or a Winter Nights is a more seducing option, this one remains seducing! Fx
