I still haven't seen the watch in person, so I'm a little leary of going for it, since doing so would require cutting my collection down to two watches (including the MIH). But I have until April to think about it, I guess.
One question/request: What is the width of the space between the lugs on the MIH? That is, what size strap does it require? Does anyone have any pictures of different straps on the watch (besides the rubber)?
My dilemma is whether it's worth it to sell of a Stowa Flieger LE (nice casual wear) and a Kobold Seal (dive/beater wear) and replace them with one MIH. I can't afford to keep all of them, and the design is similar enough to the Seal as to overlap a bit.
Best,

worth it in my opinion
the calendar and chronograph function, the design and involvement of three leading watchmakers and designers, and support for the museum all in one highly sought after piece. I love mine. Sorry, mine is still on rubber strap.
Dan, i've never held one, but mine is coming soon.
i think its worth having as it is a totally all purpose watch. as you dont have to pay until its ready, i havent paid for mine yet, you've got plenty of time to decide, but its a very special piece. i'll be changing straps immediately as i have an aversio...
