love the 70’s look and the fact that it’s a sub 40mm size doesn’t hurt either. Always liked my dress pieces to be between 35-39mm, just a better size in dress cloths. Thanks Yeoman, another great job.

Yes, size is quite ideal for a dress watch.

This is nice! I do personally think, the re-issuance models are always the right step for the watchmaker to venture. Nicely done, at least for my eyes 🙂 Thanks for sharing

I hope to see more of these Neo 70’s model coming out in the future. Would be great if they can make them with automatic movement.
