I think it&#8217;s real looker and it&#8217;s running very well.  At 52mms, it&#8217;s a size that while quite large for me, is not clown like (as I&#8217;m sure the 60mm version would be)   <br \/>This watch is running the Swiss 6497, which I think will be reliable.  I really like the clean look of the sterile dial.  It reminds me of the RWC Egi homage, which is a great watch, but at $1100 is to rich for me at the moment.  I really prefer the sapphire crystal.  I know it&#8217;s not &#8220;vintage&#8221;, but I just don&#8217;t really like plexi.<\/p>\n<p>Since this watch doesn&#8217;t have the small seconds hand, the Nightwatch vintage dial mod is not possible, so this watch is not going the vintage route.  If I decide to do a vintage Egi in the future, I&#8217;ll go ahead and buy the other DSN Egi and have one of each.<\/p>\n<p>The watch arrived with a strap, which was awful, and so was put on an Extra D9 strap I have lying around with no home. Even though this strap was not designed for the Egi, I think it looks great.  The no stitch strap really looks great with the minimalist sterile dial, so I think this is the combo I&#8217;ll be happy with for a while.  <\/p>\n<p>The watch also arrived wit an extra solid case back, which I was not expecting and is a really nice bonus &#8211; Thanks Davidsen!  (Although I do like looking at the movement, so it&#8217;ll stay with the glass for now I think).<\/p>\n<p>Last thing: the lume on this watch is incredible!  It&#8217;s among the very best I have and is comparable to the lume jobs done by Zig, Vac and Kent Parks!!  It&#8217;s nice to get a watch in this price range from a manufacturer that doesn&#8217;t need a lume job:)<br \/>So here are a stack of photos I took this Saturday (can you tell I&#8217;m really happy with this watch!!) :<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hi guys, above is my new DSN Big Egi Homage that just came in the mail last Friday.
