So far so good. Seems pretty tough and durable to me.
A sure-fire holiday watch, at home in the sea and the pool.

Winner!
What an awful time to lose your job. Hope you find something quickly.
Any who thinks it's too large here's a quick wrist shot on the wrist of a four year old girl.

Thanks to very generous Bigvic...
The Brady Sail Cloth with green stitch could be a good option. Anyone tried it?

I had a walk up Sutton Bank yesterday, just as the sun was setting over North Yorkshire and was gifted with one of the best views in England.

Thank you Eddie.
Chris.
Just had a text from the Mrs, mine has arrived.
16 months from an idea to reality, can't wait to get home!
And be priced at £13,000 as there's at least 9 people who think that's not expensive.
But you're OK with a Hamster logo on the dial?
Back in '09 I drew some Smiths logos for Eddie, and since then I've always thought the crown logo looks like a pair of boobs, my version was slightly less curvier than the original but it still looks...
Not sure yet Dan, Eddie will decide the finer detail.
Chris
The latest revision is below, the green will be in the Seafire name and the custom Nato. Green was chosen because the watch was inspired by the dials below.

Are you suggesting the Smiths Logo should be different for each Smiths Watch? I don't agree, I think the Smiths logo should be consistent across all new Smiths watches. A bold move I know, but other...
I'd tried it with both, but feel the outer track gives it a more vintage feel, without it looks a little more modern and even a bit motorsport.
Chris.
From my point of view the design in it's first or second iteration is still a draft. As you rightly point out it's not a remake of a Smiths model, and doesn't intent to be. It's a new Smiths watch....
The refinements will be down to Eddie's better judgement, however if it's a manual wind it won't be a screw-down, it's not necessary for a watch rated at 100m.
It's got Eddie's backing, due 2014.
In consultation with Mr Platts the size will be 38-40mm, PVD case, stainless case back, no date, name as is, Green stripe NATO. Movement TBC.
What no bracelet, mesh or rubber?
