Thanks for the detailed review. Beauty of a watch. I recently bought the SOHC, black dial & bezel. If you don't mind the question, was the green LE much more costly than the others? |

Nice review Ricardo. What # did you get?? |

Very well written Ricardo. I'd love to get my hands on one of the original SOH green bezel pieces with the white dial. |

Mine's never been off the OR since I purchased it but looking at these pics I may well get that bracelet on over the weekend, thanks Ricardo, great post! Cheers |

Cheers The Ocean Classic gleams much more in person than in pics and picks up the extra steel from the pushers nicely. And it is very, very comfortable. |

Thank You for all Your kind words guys. Indeed, Andrew, mine is number 427. I consider myself to be one of the lucky few. @Mr Dovewatcher: This LE has a MRRP of £3780 in the UK. About 10% higher than the standard SOHC which is £3510 in the 2009 price list, although I understand prices will go up very shortly. |

I wish this watch came in a little bit small case, say 40-42 mm, for us with tiny wrists (mine 6.75") and with a day-date feature of the B13.... I'd buy one in the very minute it hits the market. My favourite color combo is the "blackeye-blue" - as the SOHC come is this version I hope a smaller one will follow suit some day. Enjoy this beautiful watch! Best, Robert |
