    Like the look of that, though difficult to tell the dimensions from one picture.

    I would abuse anyone who abuses you. That's a great looking watch.

    Generally VDB wares are very large very chunky and often make use of 'vintage' Omega movements. Although frowned upon I liked his homage Panerai work more than his own creations which border on ugly and unattractive, all subjective and just imo of course.

    They are often unwearable, and as a result get flipped like pancakes.

    Glad to see the level of ignorance and misrepresentation is at its usual lofty levels.
    Several members here need to get out in the real world a bit more!

    Ha ha, coming from a "real world" city slicker

    But explain, ignorance and misrepresentation to me, it's easy to yell stuff, but why is this the case?

    They make some ugly monsters and some great lookers - just like most brands - that one, as noted, is more watchlike than some. I like it.

    Size was never the issue for me but the standard 28mm straps were. The buckle is almost a belt buckle and the fat strap always made it look and feel like a fashion brand watch rather than an "artisan" piece.

    No, that's another member. I have a couple of nice pieces that were built in the UK, but we don't discuss such things here of course
