HauteHippie Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 38mm across by 48(!)mm lug to lug. 12mm thick. El Primero movement. Guilloche dial.... I like it. Alot. Thoughts? No Oris arguments, please.
ubiquitous Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Agree completely. This DR is lovely. I was offered one with a movement needing overhaul; a possible candidate for one of my franken-Daytonas, but I passed; no way I could butcher this one for the movement, and unfortunately not enough funds in my watch account to pick this one up to restore for the sake of owning
solicitor Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Maybe with a different colored dial, otherwise I'd have to pass on that one...
flavor flav Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 i'm not crazy about that one in particular but alot of daniel roths i like alot. of course it does have a badass movement
HauteHippie Posted December 30, 2006 Author Report Posted December 30, 2006 One thing I will say is that the dial (to me) is so formal but then they sort of ruin it with that crappy date font.... They should have developed a classy typeface for the date numerals.

r11co Posted December 30, 2006 Report Posted December 30, 2006 Thoughts? No Oris arguments, please. You won't get any arguments from me, but just make sure the retail on that is high enough to keep the horseman from looking down his nose at you for suggesting it...... WRT the watch - anything with an El Primero inside gets my respect , and the sooner it gets repped the sooner a whole raft of beautiful watches opens up to us...
HauteHippie Posted December 30, 2006 Author Report Posted December 30, 2006 they used the rep font Yea. If this thing got repped, I'd want them to IMPROVE the date font, not match it!
