“General thoughts: Excellent for evening wear. Rose-gold variant is warm, especially on black leather strap. Wear true-to-size.
Case, bezel, & build quality: Domed crystal provides classic look and feel, though is fragile and a scratch magnet. Case-back is naked stainless steel.
Strap: Included crocodile leather strap is too formal, was immediately replaced with a black leather strap, which allows casual wear easily.
Movement: The sand-blasted F6T22 movement is a lovely upgrade over older movements. Accuracy is within spec; I found myself adjusting time twice per week. The open-heart presentation more than makes up for the absence of the date complication.
Hand & markers: The baton markers and hands are beautiful in rose-gold plate. All of the important pieces are reflective, and look great in both red and blue lighting.
Suggested improvements: Remove water resistant text. Add date wheel complication at the 3-o'clock. Use sapphire crystal. Rose-gold plate the case back.”
