Anytime you can get a CSOC mechanical movement for under $2,000 you have made a good buy.
When I first started collecting watches I went after the precious metals and bling.
After studying the art of watches, I realized that 90% of a watch's value is in the movement and various complications.
Obviously, if you can match precious metal and a fine movement then you have the best of both worlds.
That Lum-Tec is a perfect example of a great watch at an affordable price. I love it.

Ok, back on topic.
Lum-Tec is a great brand, and I really love both of these. The M-automatics are awesome watches, and fairly cheap if you can find them. Plus I have both of them but the M17 is already sold and the M16 will be up for sale again soon.

I really like the style of the M autos, I just wish they'd make a slightly smaller for skinny folks. 44mm is way too big for a metal watch on a 5'11" 10 lb guy like me.

LOL! Supposed to say 160 lbs. Its the skinny wrists, not the height. I have an eco drive that is 41mm and its pretty big on my wrist. I'd have to try one in person before I ever even thought about it.

Heh heh, hope you sell it before that. I've still got a move and some saving to do for the P car. Plus my wife might very well kick me in the balls if I buy another watch.
