Off the wrist

Not all that creative, but I just love the light on this dial and the slightly raised indices. Matched with the enamel texture, there's just a ton of depth to this dial.

Also put it on a fantastic vintage bracelet that's absolute fire (although its a hair puller).

Yes,  they did a recent partnership with Garrick. They are a UK-based brand with a long history,  went bankrupt,  then were revived by one of the founders relatives.

They are on the lower end of independents -  sub $5k. I have to say that I'm just blown away by it.  This was just under $4k and it really is a fine looking watch. The raised indices,  the sub brushed case,  the lume,  the textured dial. 

I like nearly all watches and love alot of watches.  I have no hesitation in saying I LOVE this watch.  I think the 38mm salmon and/or champagne that I was originally interested in would have been too small on my 7" wrist for my tastes.  But I couldn't be happier.

Yeah it's awesome. The champagne would suit my wrist really nicely 😀

Yes it would. I'm glad I got the 40mm, but my wrist is 18cm. I'm extremely impressed with it.  But I had my eye on the Salmon and Champagne originally.  I just want sure about the 38mm size.

I’m obsessed with this watch! The design is 💯!

I am too. They just stopped making it and are about to release their new model in the next couple weeks. Should be interesting. The guys at Holthinrichs are pretty cool, had a chance to chat with them several times. The 3D printing is pretty crazy and allows them to do some cool stuff like the side profile is hollowed out and there is text that is hidden. The kids are hollow and have a hidden drilled hole to release the springbar.

I posted some sketches of the new version and the lugs are floating and the dial is deconstructed.

Really digging this new tan beaver tail strap from @artifexleather.

Looks so good with the blue on this anOrdain I took the anOrdain of my vintage Japanese bracelet which I love that combo.

I also realize this isn't letting me tag photos. Need to look into that.
