General fit and finish is excellent. The strap is custom made from Frankie Tso.



Being a 'base' model the canon pinon is the correct height, you'll find on most with seconds hands that the canon pinion is too low.



Movement keeps time to around 3s per day. It's hard to check with no seconds hand but by checking it over a week it was only about 20s fast. Power reserve is a measured 58 hours from the 21,600 hi-beat Seagull ST36.



Sandwich dial is well finished.



Only negative is that crown. It screws down nice and smooth, plenty of turns too, but when unscrewed it needs a slight nudge outwards to move it to the winding position whereas I think it should just pop out to that position under spring tension.



The lugs point down on these ones while on some other homages they stick straight out making them wear bigger.



Lume is the best of any watch I have ever owned!
