I would love to hear your impressions of this one, especially the bracelet since it’s a friction fit clasp. I’ve been eyeing the cadence 8 HF for quite a while.

Nice and thin. Lots of interesting differences in finish and texture on the case and dial. It really pops in the sunlight.

although it’s approximately 41 mm in diameter, the width of the bezel makes the dial appear smaller than the specs would indicate.

The friction fit clasp seems fine. No issues with it.

My one wish is that they had tapered the bracelet more. It’s about 2 mm of taper right now, I wish they had tapered by 4 mm. Would make it a bit dressier.

Sharp, the exceptional dial and numerals are amazing. Like spinners on an HMMWV, but unpretentious. Yeah, that only works for your watch, so You hit the mark for masculine bold refinement in a piece. :cheers:

Nice! I love the overall execution on the alpine eagle. The dials are something else.
