They have different options for dials and straps and either automatic or manual wind, automatic base model is €200 more than manual

The originals hold their value so I’m interested to see what happens with this re launch, if I had the cash I’d be on board- that Antarctic looks great and is the right size!

Far and wide I will find 'em and I ride 'em
Bricks and mortar get my licks just for kicks
AD or authorized I don't analyze
Retail, wholesale never fail
Online or offline, I find I don't redefine
Too big to fail or yard sale they all hale
Run or hide just for fun deals I find

I am on the fence with this one, but since buying a vintage Nivada for the $35 challenge I’ve been on a Nivada rampage and have 4 vintage ones already.... must resist!!

Some pics and video of the Chronomaster. I think if I were buying I would go for the manual wind rather than auto to cut down on the thickness. The oyster bracelet is one those stretchy spring-loaded bracelets like on an old Zodiac Sea Wolf.

Curious, as they use the logo for their IG account, but not on the dials.
