bklm1234 Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 'Oh my god' is my reaction. It looks much better in person. It has that same elegant, high-class, high quality feel as the gen I spotted some guy wearing at Costco. In fact, it's after that incident when I started researching where to get a homage. I feel comfortable getting a rep (reps) and I know where to get them now. The davidsen's fit and finish totally rivals the gen. For those who bought or are buying a branded davidsen, you don't need to worry about getting picked out. There's no way someone will doubt its authenticity. The high polish is mirror like and the gloss gives a very expensive feel. The AR sapphire has the exact same blueish tint as the real thing. I'll let you know if the lume will last through the night. It doesn't look as bright as my other watch which has SL but I'll see. I have the Swiss movement. It has a very sure feel and it clicks as I wind it and I know right away when it's fully wound. You don't have to worry about over-winding because there's a very sure feedback. I hope the CN 6497 is nearly as good. the CG level is a snug-fit and it locks the crown tight. There is no wobbling of the crown. I was given a generic, decent band which is reasonable because I ordered a non-branded. It took about 1 1/2 week for the watch to get to California in a small but secure box. This opens a flood gate to my wallet and I'm gonna be in trouble.

ryyannon Posted October 11, 2006 Report Share Posted October 11, 2006 That is a lovely watch. Beautiful off-yellow lume, rounded CGs, silky finish.....hints of both vintage and modern ....needs a special strap though: something thick and natural to offset the fluidity and sophistication of the design. Very impressive work by Davidsen.... Tempted to get one for myself..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
