Normally I don’t seek opinions but this model has created interest for me. I wouldn’t hesitate if it didn’t have the automatic on the dial and in particular if it didn’t have a secondhand. However I’m still attracted to it. Thanks for looking and sharing ...
...but I have always found that having both the numeral "9" AND a second hand is out of balance for me. One or the other -- but not both. I have a 655, and find that the micro-rotor provides an interesting variation -- I like it. Similarly, the 655 has "a...
which don't have "automatic" on the dial, but they do have a secondhand. I myself don't like this "automatic" on the dial. And i don't even understand why they stick to put it on the dial as automatic movements are so common nowadays... I wish you'll find...
