My feeling is that both of these are horrendous.

And that, beyond that, angled date wheels at 4:30 are just cheap and tacky.

If I may ask Rambo, how big is your wrist, and could you take a shot a little further back?


+1, I'd like to see that too

Sure guys. My mini-tape seems to have gone the way of the Dodo so you'll have to give me a little bit to dig it up. What is the proper way to measure wrist size? Over the center of the bone? I'll work on getting a daylight shot in the next few days. Its almost impossible to use the flash on this thing, thus the dark shots.
