Maratac Mid came in today

[Demoman]

Mid pilot watch came in today and it is a nice watch for 200$. I am not overly impressed but I am happy with it.
The Lume on this thing is awesome, it was in the case and on a ups truck for 7 days, when I opened it and took it outside for 10 seconds, it lit up like a Christmas tree. WOW...

I think it will have to grow on me as I will wear it most of the time now.
I tried a few different straps on it an seems the light brown strap suited my tastes a bit better.

I will post pics when I get to my laptop tonight. Wrist shots and different straps(PICS POSTED)

Good luck with it.

I love mine. Perfect fit for my wrist, easy to read, and you are right, the Lume is nuts.

Looks great with the light brown strap, enjoy!

I have the large myself, great watch.

Just to compare notes, when you guys adjust the time, is the action on the hands/crown a bit jerky (not buttery smooth)? I don't remember what it's suppose to be like.

Mine is smooth, not rough at all.
I am going to swap out between the black zulu and the light brown strap. the darker straps buckle is too big.

I should rephrase, it's not rough, the feedback from the crown is like gears meshing.

Here's mine on orange nato.

The hand movement is but not the crown movement.

Yes, my hands are a bit jerky too when I adjust time. It's weird cause my other watches don't do this (ETA movements).

Mine is kinda rough compared to my ETA 2824, no doubt about that.
