I do regret it, but at that time (2019) I thought the pricing was too aggressive. And that, maybe with some time it would sit better with me. Even at the end of 2020 he still had two watches available, but again, I passed.
Alas, the world changed and Christian’s watch appears like a bargain in comparison to some that have come since.
I do like Hida’s watches. A lot. But I think the prices quickly reflected the demand and moved to a point that was a bit too much for me. That said, never say never. The 1E or 3B would be my picks.
