Naomi's got a new watch, the Naomi Osaka Aquaracer 300 LE. Yet another green watch, which she helped to design.

And it means I have to do a post, and I haven't even done the Autavias one yet... which was supposed to be up tomorrow, but I don't think it's gonna be.

1/250, it鈥檚 ok, wife鈥檚 not interested, she does think that Naomi should stick to her day job though.

The watch seems OK but I think it's odd that they spend a whole paragraph on the product page about a second strap made of recycled material, then don't show it... 馃槙

From boutique video

Looks like the extra strap is a nato.
This is one case where I think the renders look better than the live pics. The strap looks rather drab and the dial more of a chartreuse green.

It looks fine on Naomi鈥檚 wrist, and very similar to the renders. I guess it鈥檚 just a poor picture because of poor light condition in the boutique and maybe a bad camera, and maybe a bad photographer 馃槈

Looks more like the renders in this video too:https://www.instagram.com/p/CYq7Gp_h2Kp/
I'd like to see more live pics to get a better feel for this one.

The boutique does indeed have a nasty lighting setup, but also the photographer wasn't me - I've not been going on watch trips because the Covid situation is a bit too hot right now and I'm hoping to be able to go on vacation soon.

I just love the Aquaracer. The bezel is always aligned without fail.

But of course we are talking about the movement. not the design or the impeccable bezel.

Not much of interest trying it on obv (look how small it is on my enormous wrist) but I did try it on on the NATO and it鈥檚 fairly nice.

It actually doesn't look that overly small to me. If not for the diamonds, you probably could go unnoticed wearing it. The NATO is cool.

Dial looks lighter than expected somehow.... probably looks smaller IRL I'm guessing, photos always make everything look bigger.

Ah yeah, the photo is a bit close-up so it doesn't look as small. I'm able to pull off the odd 36mm watch but not one with an external bezel.

The dial is definitely a light green.
