Below is a Octogonal case in Ceramic coated Titanium with a sandblasted anthracite dial... the case is 44mm and 14mm thick, absence of real lug makes it more wearable than the numbers look - having said that, it is still a BIG timepiece. FB limits this re...
...it has a steampunk kind of vibe combined with classic horology. I do wish they would make a smaller case, especially on the non-fusee and chain models (which I can see would need to be larger).
it visually is large but as there are no-lugs, it is 44mm direct (while you take any 38mm modern timepiece lug to lug is 47mm). so wearable but visually it is bold
same like what Nico and I say earlier, the movement is impressive - Dial side would have been better but I can appreciate the technicality and quality of the timepiece
Their watches are subject to cosc testing, but perform way better as one can see from the result that comes with the watch. The point is that a) you are subjecting an extremely complicated watch to a certification which is really for sports watches b) you...
The water resistance test is specced to be "25% more than manufacturer's spec" so dress watches are fine (as long as manufacturers don't lie about wr), there are no shock or impact tests. The only vaguely "sports watch" test would be anti magnetism - but ...
Vastly simpler that anything FB makes. I don't know if there is some legal issue where you can't do cosc test and impose your own standards on top, makes other brands look bad. But no argument on the poor communication ...
is breathtaking, so special to see that lug solution. 44 is big, and even as the watch looks like a grail for me, fingers cross FB made a series in 38, 39, and 40. Thinner, let’s wait till the movement loose size and the watch goes direction 11mm.
Perfect. In January i bought a watch. With a story. With a nice surprise. It wend out i bought the perfect fitting watch for my wrist. So i measure all sizes, so to judge other watches if they stand my test. I look at an oyster perpetual with the right si...
