I hear things about a new movement - anyone know anything solid on the movement?

Doesn’t work for me, which is good since it’ll be expensive and impossible to get.

I like it except the motif dial. It’s too much with the fluted bezel which is supposed to be what grabs the attention. Lou’s it cheapens the watch I think. Otherwise I’d rock this in 40-41

I really dislike fluted bezels so nope. The land dweller name seems like a poor choice.

If it’s a new movement they are officially admitting the 32XX issues.

[edit]

I like most of the things about the watch. Dig how thin it is.

Hate the name.

Buy a Tudor Simley 41mm and swap dial on a 41mm Tudor royal then you have it no date with better design Land Dweller.

I don’t LOVE it, but I do like the thought of a modern automatic movement using the design language of the oysterquartz. I hate the name though. It’s like a 12 year old boy named it.

I like the case because it reminds me of the Oyster-Quartz. The dial, not so much.
