Wrist Check - 2018
Discussion
I think the Rose BB looks a little more interesting than the current model. Not just the logo, but the curved text stands out. Thinner too, isn't it?
ETA. Rather, the current one is thicker, to take the new in-house movement with 70hr reserve.

Correct, the new one is ever so slightly thicker. Really disappointed they started using the shield in the new one.ETA. Rather, the current one is thicker, to take the new in-house movement with 70hr reserve.

Too many watches Andy - that's your problem.
I know. A couple of years ago I thought I had this obsession under control, but I've relapsed badly.
first post on the watches part of PH, so go easy on me folks...
I know its nowhere as glamorous as some of the fantastic watches on here but I am really pleased with this - I have never had more than a 'beater' watch so to have something a little bit nicer is a real treat..always wanted a 'bullhead' style but the crazy prices for vintage ones meant they were out of my reach.
A nice 'rallye' style strap and a tan leather strap are on their way so that I have some options on straps for it - the colour of the main dial is wonderful and changes with different light on it. Seiko movement so should be nice and reliable.
