Re: How about the movement? Mon, 16 April 2018 15:35 Go to previous messageGo to previous message

5100 is a great movement for this kind of watch. It is almost as if they created a movement just for the Overseas and right now it is the only series using it. 60 PR with a Geneva seal and only 172 parts, making it an ideally robust construction for a sport watch, not fragile, dainty or overly decorated by any means yet highly finished. It is also larger than the similar AP movement in the RO so it fits the case better which some people find really important.

"I won't insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said."
