Visiting a museum earlier today. The newly opened Segerstrom Shelby collection
Cool vintage cars and one very cool vintage chrono, doesn't get much better than that! 👍👍

^ Got impressions on the quality? I've been waiting and waiting for a true Super Kontiki reissue but these seem nice too

I think these punch well above their weight - especially at last year’s (they’ve been discontinued…) online prices and in those domains that you don’t see on a spec sheet:

Case finish is really nice (IMHO), AR coating of the DD sapphire is rather good, lume application is clean and its potency is OK (more “instant glare” than long-distance though), and the polished edges of the markers really put on a show with the right light. Can’t fault the crown operation either and since strapping it on this morning, I’m at minus 2 or 3 seconds.

It’s not a small watch, though (slightly >50mm L2L), but its slimness, the downturned lugs and the lightness of the Hirsch Performance (in my case) really help to wear it comfortably (YMMV).

Then next time I will combine it with the Red Bull Racing Special Edition strap 😉

So today’s Modular 45 combo is specially dedicated to @Jim Dollares 😉
