WRUW Thursday - 01/05/2017

Well I am off the vintage watches for a day as my Deaumar Ensign is already here......

Oh man Gary, this is literally the first time have seen someone with one of these !!!
Looks like Tony did an unbelievable job sir ! ..The design of classic, and almost vintage
elements like the case, and hands is epic !!! But you also have this phenomenal balance
of cool, ultra modern elements like the awesome sunray orange dial, markers, along
with bezel teeth ! It's all so timeless, but yet totally different than other watches out
there G ! ..A giant congratulations Gary !!! What a get ! ENJOY sir !!!

Terrific pics as always by the way here !!!


Enjoying the Cordella this Thursday guys...

Thanks Tom! There was only 300 of these made across all colors, mine is 240/300. I have not seen many of them either. I saw the email that Deaumar was closing up shop and clearance selling the rest of the stock. Only orange was left so I got one. At first I was a bit put off by the shade of Orange.....but now I am liking it more and more.  Watch has great specs... so took a chance for $175 delivered in 2 days from Europe.

Yowza, all of this makes this one even more awesome of an arrival sir !!!

Didn't know that about Deaumar closing down like that. Sounds like a ton of watches sold.

..Don't think you could have chosen a better version honestly. ..That orange is insanely cool Gary ! I mean it
looks fantastic from here, so can imagine how nice it is in person there.

Plus it's not just great looking either. It backs up the exceptional looks with some exceptional specs !!!
Thanks for putting up all of that info Gary ! ..Congrats once again, and keep enjoying this one !!!
