I remember seeing these awhile ago, production was in limbo for some reason but it's finally available. I kinda like the vintage look to it, sandwich dial, bezel design; has nice specs but seems a bit pricey for what it offers(?)

I remember these too Chris ! Smile ..Hadn't checked in on them lately
so it's cool seeing, and learning about them more. They genuinely
look pretty terrific in my opinion, and I like that they are designing
these watches themselves. Rather than using the usual cases, and
bracelets we often see on many watches. Also is impressive seeing
the top notch materials, as well as movements that go into them.
Really love the case shape, along with sandwich dial too. Even the
packaging with all of the extras is nice. ..Neat stuff Chris ! Thanks
alot for the pictures, and link !

I recall that there was some sort of underhandedness when I first heard of the SAS; seems that thievery exists even down to the micro brand level!

A little more pricey than the regular run of the mill micro, but it's original. Anybody can buy a case/hands/bracelet/ bezel off the shelf and slap in a movement. That's why most of the micros are so inexpensive and have little staying power (i.e. flipped). This one, while not for everybody, looks very promising. Graeme is top notch as well. A member of DWC just ordered one and it arrived the next day ..... from Scotland. You can't get much more efficient than that.

Like the case/bezel - Not the price.
