“I bought a Sea Urchin a few years ago, and while I loved the look, it was just too big. I have a smaller wrist, and while it PHYSICALLY felt big, more than anything I was bothered by the impression it seemed I was trying to make. I appreciate subtlety, and there was nothing subtle about that watch on my wrist. So, when the SRPK29 came out, I was curious, but cautious. But now that I have it, my only regret is that I didn’t order it sooner.
For me, this watch ticks all the boxes: size, durability, hacking and hand winding, and a tradition I appreciate. And I’m totally fine with what some would consider its deal-breakers. I’ve never had problems with Hardlex; I’m not a diver, so I don’t need a watch with an ISO certification; and even the bracelet with its two points of micro adjustments works for me. It is more than enough watch for what I need, and I wear it happily and without reservation.
As far as the actual buying process is concerned, I couldn’t be more impressed with its ease and efficiency. The watch was shipped in no time and arrived sooner than I expected. And buying from Marc feels like buying from a friend.”
