      When I mug the elderly and I firm, I make sure to stall them first, so one is SURE the victim is worth the effort.

    I have the ice blue Le Mans. About six months ago, I tried to order a Glycine from Gnomon. They were out of that one, so I switched to the Le Jour. Glad I did - it is gorgeous and I really like it. I am sure Marc will sell a bunch of these.

  • @bobmclennan1727

    That icy LeMans is definitely going for a specific Daytona model, and frankly it looks pretty great. 17mm thickness though... that's tough to overlook.

    Just out of interest in this "new wave" fad of mechanical watches , how many issues do you have with returns for watches that play up after a while? I ask that because quartz was a blessing when I was young for obvious reasons.

    Like all watches, but the Sea Colt seems to have the most style, and originality. Nicely priced for a Swiss, aside from name recognition it looks right on par maybe even better and more detailed than a Tissot. Tissot selling quartz chrono 300$ to 400$. Autos right at 600$. 800$ for looks that are on par with Certina and Mido and all the middle of the road established Swiss brands.
