So this arrived today

Post by JAS1125 » Mon Jul 12, 2021 7:55 am

42mm case, Miyota movement, 20mm BOR bracelet, domed sapphire crystal, leather roll with rubber band and extra screws.

Beautiful silver dial, despite crappy cell pics

Most excellent. The old cushion case/BOR design is actually really elegant (and, in Doxa's SUB example, very comfortable.) It's also most excellent that the cocksuckers at Doxa didn't get any money out of this, which is capital.

Agree with your points....frankly, other than the movement which I'm sure I overpaid for, I don't get how Doxa charges their price.
Fuck 'em

Thanks!

That’s sharp. And I got $10 says that BOR is simply butter!

Looks like a SUB, but isn't a modern Doxa. That's great!

Those are sharp- the bracelet looks great. Waiting to see what the frog guys do with the bezel before I buy anything- rather have the Miyota than the NH and I like that a lot. Nice catch.
