I love it, less than 400 notes and a follow on to previous Seiko field watches.
Use the hour hand and the sun to determine North, rotate the compass inner bezel to navigate your way out of the desert.

Mundane movement, but upside of 4R36 is you may as well bin and replace as actually service it.
Glass instead of sapphire is a bit meh. Actually acrylic would suit best.
Going to wear big - 43mm and all-dial will look like a dinnerplate on-wrist.
Defo best on the canvas/nylon.
But I like it, cool design, and cheap-as-chips.
Oh yes - back is nice too -

Mmm. I hadn’t clocked that, no pun intended. After many years of 44+ I’m not really that guy any more.

I have a couple of Seikos. For build quality, they should be priced with the Russians. But they aren’t. So no.

Motoring tie-up watches are all too often lumps of cringe, notwithstanding that I own and love two of them… But when it’s Ettore Bugatti’s own design from waybackintheday of beautiful blue racing-Bugattis, then it gets very forgivable - and for once the bracelet just Makes it for me, the tiny 24mm width, a bit less-so -
(yes it’s upside-down)
Now if I was CEO of largely-forgotten-and-overlooked Mido - lost in the forest of Swatch Group brands and not even officially represented in the UK - I’d be in talks with VAG about a licensing agreement for a 2021-sized reissue of some kind…

Some of the panel will like it today, then hate it tomorrow.
That is an insult to my eyes. I presume they sell loads in Qatar?

Do Corum make anything that isn’t hideous?
I only worked on one golden bridge, but I fell in love with it will servicing the movement. Then after polishing it I tried it on and immediately fell out of love with it 
I don’t want to see my wrist hairs more than the movement

The Corum was introduced in 1970. At the time, Rolls-Royce offered the Silver Shadow I (2- or 4-door) and the Phantom VI. Elegant and restrained cars vs terrible, blingy watch. Most odd. 
Love these. Not seen this one before but
