I generally find that kind of lug more universal...

In terms of what wrists it fits. But I know that different people have different preferences in that respect ππ»

Short review of my latest acquisition - the Ming Watches 17.01
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-04:16
While we all like to believe to be masters of our own destinies, sometimes life throws us a curve ball. And while mine - of late 2016 - was fortunately not of the kind that will derail my further life unduly, it did result in the watch budget being draine...
Not seen the anthracite live yet...

But from pictures it appears similarly alluring, even if quite different. The digital guilloche comes out stronger on it, though.
You're welcome, Sake!
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-05:32
Cannot really give you an answer to your question, though - since I have not yet seen the Lundis Bleus. But a good point to check it out - thanks
The third picture is stunning
By: Bruno.M1 : August 24th, 2017-05:39
Thanks for the review Hope to get one too My first choice is also the blue π
I only hope the 38mm is big enough for me
By: Bruno.M1 : August 24th, 2017-05:42
Cause I always said.... nothing under 40 for my wrist But I've read it looks a bit bigger than 38 because of the big dial vs not so thick bezel
That is the other side of the coin...

Direct distribution means a lower overall cost - as you do not have retail and wholesale layers involved - but unfortunately also means that trying it on before making a decision is sadly much more difficult. Do hope it fits though

Or something of that sort - my poor photography sadly isn't improving fast enough But that one did seem to work better than the others, hence also chosen for the front picture of the post Thanks!
Definitely coming to a GTG near you ;)
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-06:02
On a more serious note, it is a very intriguing watch - and one I am very much looking forward to placed next to your FP Journe Chronometre Bleu for a twin shot Thanks Alkiro!
Deal done π
By: Alkiro1 : August 24th, 2017-06:32
I'm really interested in seeing this one in real. You know, 38mm and such a mesmerising blue dial are, especially, really my taste π Best wishes Alkiro
Perfect ππ»

Blue dials and raw meat - match made in heaven
Thanks Padj!
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-07:46
Glad you like it As said, coming soon to a GTG close to you
I hear you...
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-09:14
On a seconds hand as an indicator, whether it's running. But then again one hears it's heartbeat Glad you liked the review and that you largely share the verdict. As for arrived, depends on the serial number and when they are ready

Nice watch indeed and thank for adding your review. I was surely too late recognizing its potential but still hope to have a chance to encounter somewhere soon. Cheers, Kolosstt
Are they all sold out?
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-11:05
Or is it only the current batch? A nice piece at any rate and glad if the review was helpful!
Quoting their website
By: kolosstt : August 24th, 2017-20:44
We are extremely grateful to our customers and supporters for the great reception the 17.01 has received - unfortunately, this has also meant we have the good problem of (as at today, roughly ten days after launch) over 900 people on the waiting list for ...
Still have a chance...
By: CD : September 19th, 2017-11:38
The second batch was sold out in about 3 minutes! There is a third, but last batch, in late October. I received mine this past weekend and it's truly a very nice one.
How nice to have also such a reading pleasure to go with excellent photos
By: BjoernM21 : August 24th, 2017-10:59
This Ming watch has really aroused the interest of watch enthusiasts: On two well known commercial watch blogs you could find - for once - also enthusiastic and informative reviews on it instead of rehashed press releases. For me it was particularly inter...
I am so disappointed... π₯
By: Mike H : August 24th, 2017-14:36
...that I heard about this Ming too late and it was already sold out... I would also have gone for a blue dial as it is the color of love as blomman and zabreg1 say (with right π). I need to try this one, surely at our next GTG π. Congrats my friend, wear...
Thank you Mike!
By: KMII : August 24th, 2017-21:22
Will definitely bring it to the next GTG And I am sure more watches and models will become available from Ming in the coming years
Big congrats!
By: mj23 : August 24th, 2017-21:08
Nice looking watch.
And it is even on Bloomberg
By: Bruno.M1 : August 25th, 2017-00:43
Guess there will be quite a lot more than 900 requests by now It is indeed the hodinkee article, but I'm surprised Bloomberg agrees to publish such an article about such a micro brand, I guess they really did everything right Strange such a cheap watch g...
Well...
By: KMII : August 25th, 2017-01:44
As usually, it is not about the price, only
