In Response To: Speedy Date, 3211.30 ()

Hi Langley,

I have the 3513.30.00, so I don't think mine has the same movement (mine's an 1152) but is steel on steel. I also opted for the steel bracelet.

No complaints as far as the movement, accuracy (~ +6 sec/day for most rest positions). My crystal is domed with the AR on the inside only. The bracelet is very comfortable and secure.

Only two things about mine. I won't say I dislike it because of them, only noting them for you:
1) Most folks opt for the classic white hands/black dial. I would think more popular = easier resale if you ever decide to swap it for something else.
2) The silver on silver can be a bit hard to see at times. No big deal, but sometimes I have to really look to check the time.

On the plus side, I think the silver/silver combo is a bit dressier than the white/black, but that's just my opinion.

Ken
