I like the look of those, but would want to see real photos before ordering. The quartz colourway is really fun, too - shame it's not available as an auto.

That smooth seconds quartz with the creme/orange/blue colorway is very tempting. For some reason my discretionary watch fund has cratered by October of every year. LOL.
