    Serica. It's just so classy and the case finish is a nice mix of polish and brushed for the price. It sounds like it's a little small for your taste but that size is closer to the traditional field watch size.

    Honestly even after over 20 years of loving watches II never thought that this it what California dial is.

    Nomos 738 (with display back) all day long. I own that one. I have a 7" wrist and also prefer 40mm watches, however, the Nomos 738 is actually 38.5mm and with the long lugs it really fits perfectly. Highly recommend. Great video! Subbed 👍🏼

      Thanks! This is also my #1 one choice if I dont consider budget and I am happy to hear it wear nicely so I will keep my eyes wide open for it.

    Funny stuff. I’ll be visiting Norway in June. Will have to visit some watch shops and try that Safari cookie.

    Thank you Hans for a very informative intro to California dials. Not a design that is to familiar and it not a part of my collection, but I will look them up in the future. By the way, you're Hans and I am Francke (actually people that don't know me well, often calls me Frank) :)
