Loving this one: one month in, +0.5spd, hasn't left my wrist. Great size, very comfortable.
Got to handle your FPJ before the brand was what it is today. At the time felt very off brand, but congrats on having the foresight to take the road less travelled, you now have a rare bird in hand!
Can't say I've handled any aluminum watches, but they have quite the bright color and seem quite nice in their own regard.
All the best - Mike
