They hinted to me that this one was coming. I think it looks quite good!

Wow, loving these and love this brand - I've never been disappointed. I actually have another watch of theirs that has the same YN77 movement, it runs at +6/secs for me.

I pre-ordered the Peren Rogue recently so on the fence about going in on this one. I got watches hiding in every nook and cranny at this point.

If I do go in, it will definitely be for the green, it's stunning.

Not really into this design. The subdial is quite large! That messes with the aestetic for me. I wish they had gone for different hands as well. Not hideous, but just not gor me. But I do think highly of the brand and their watches and can vouch for the quality…love mine.
