NTH Tikuna arrived! Now for a mini-review.
Great 40mm dive watch that wears easy at 11.5mm thick. Case is just beautiful with polished, beveled and brushed finishes. Drilled lugs fitting one of the nicest bracelets I've ever seen. The 20mm end links fit perfectly into the case and overall it has an oyster feel to it tapering to an easy-to-wear 18mm. Honestly you could install the bracelet inside/out - the finishing looks that good. Peer through the sapphire crystal and you'll see a very nicely detailed dial face with superlumed indices and hands sweeping away at 28,800bph powered by the Miyota 9015 with a 42 hour power reserve. The black, stainless, also superlumed bezel is 120 clicks of perfection with absolutely no back play. TimeBum calls it retro-futurism. I like that description and I agree. I'd have paid the full $650 asking price for this one, but absolutely smitten at $473 post-rebates.
Enough talk.........
