Pretty glad I picked this up. Gulf is my all-time favorite racing livery, and this was a lot less expensive than a Gulf Heuer Monaco.

It may just be the new watch high, but I'm really liking this.

Not completely sold on any strap combo I've tried so far. A two-piece leather NATO was the most comfortable, but lacked the oomph the watch calls for. Standards NATOs are reasonably comfortable, but add a little too much bulk. The Goldilocks strap is out there.

How does it compare to the paper trial?

It's definitely heavier :D

Pretty spot on with the size though.

That looks great!! Do you know your wrist size? You're making me think I might be able to pull that off someday...

It's 6.25" circumference, but wide and flat. The top of my wrist is about 2"/50mm

I don't care what anyone says, that is a good watch. Almost bought another myself.
