The vintage racing aesthetic is complemented by the classy brown NORQAIN leather strap, but I've currently fitted a brand-new perforated black WatchGecko leather strap which I think suits it even more. \u003cstrong\u003eBoth straps are included.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe case is on the larger side at 43mm; however, thanks to the relatively short lugs I find it wears surprisingly well even on a slimmer wrist like my 6.5-inch one. It should suit slightly larger wrists particularly well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnlike many racing chronographs, this model also boasts a manufacturer's water-resistance rating of 100m, which is fantastic to see on an automatic chronograph. Current water resistance isn't guaranteed, and pressure testing is recommended before submerging it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOriginal RRP: £3,800.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCondition\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExcellent cosmetic condition.\u003c\/strong\u003e Just light signs of casual wear to the case and buckle, visible upon close inspection.
