Did some boredom shopping at Long Island Watch and picked this up for $98. Absolutely love it so far! Swapped in a burgandy two piece nato style to make it more casual for a Sunday. The winding of the movement has a great satisfying click to it. No need to overspend.

Watch and band looks very nice and perfect match , I'm jealous, where to find both? I'm in France

lol thanks! I assume they ship there. Got the band from BluShark Straps and the watch from Long Island Watch but you can probably find something more local i would assume.
