Understand why you have this kind of feeling as I think after thes 15 years, the brand has changed the focus and know what collectors are loooking for, the Act III is one that can show the brand listened to the collector's voices, No Date, No Polished Bing Bing case, and no Big BP logo on the case side, returned back to smaller size, etc all showing the brand new approaches and definitely we need to give this brand some more time.....
Unlike GO, which after under the Big Group, the brand lost the soul and I dont know whether it needs another 15 years in order to refocus back and know what collectors are expecting and looking for from the brand..

Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to trying it on

A sport model in Ti would be more than welcome in my collection... but it has to be really light and comfortable and with contained proportions, so let's see. Micro-adjustment in the bracelet would be more than welcome, even a must for me...
Not bad indeed!

Here is another option to consider, 40mm & steel. I don't know how easy it would be to find one, but for me it really works as the bracelet makes the watch wear a bit larger. I think the new models wear better on a strap (based on my act I which has the s...
