It is very wise to wait for the hands on experience.
Keep us informed if you manage to see the watch in person.

they missed a chance here imo for the return of Minerva
not my cup of tea design-wise and the club 58 (that I saw a few months ago) is really not a beauty...
The dial looks a bit old fashioned
but I am fine with that (being old fashioned myself) as well as the 2 tones. The price is a bit high to me as I think the gear trains to wind the watch and set the time re not more difficult to make than the traditional crown (not being mechanically educated, am I correct here?).
I agree with you, Henry, concerning the old-fashioned look, which is exactly why I like this design.
Concerning the complexity of bezel setting and winding vs crown setting and winding, I couldn't tell unfortunately.
But the price is definitely high for a time only watch (with a steel case, even if the bezel is made of gold)...

To me, it's a beautiful watch. Size and all.
I am an outlier, but I see so many comments about "watch size too big".
Everyone has their own opinion when it comes to size, complications, metal, movement, etc., and that is what's interesting.
I never find any watch "too big". (Don't take me literally, I know there must be some, but I have had an Omega Railmaster at 52mm).
My complaint is many are too small and get lost on my wrist. They look boring IMO. I have had a few 36mm and a couple around 38mm. I traded them all away.
This one is a good size IMO. Anything less than 39, and I am like Goldilocks. "It's too small." Ha ha
And thanks for posting pics of this lovely watch. The design and proportions look good, and the guilooche dial looks especially very nice.
I'm glad you like this watch, Ron.
I like it too and we don't seem to be many sharing this feeling.
When I say it's "too big", I just mean for my small 16 cm wrist, so very subjective, obviously.
