there are some small companies like MIng that take months to deliver the watch after launch.

38mm would have been even more ideal particularly for smaller wrists but like always, it is the lug to lug measurements that matter so a 46.5mm lug to lug length is fine. Actually for my wrist anything south of 46.5mm is fine. Also it matters if the lugs ...
Thank you Nico!

because unlike most of the other internet based companies, they actually sent the watch out 24 hours after I had placed my order on the day of the launch. The watch actually arrived almost three weeks ago in my home but I had been away hence the delay in ...
