Disclosure

Dan is a friend of mine and has been for years. I've done reviews and promoted his watches, and have also done quite a bit of work on his website for him, sent him my Christopher Ward C11 Automatic, etc, etc. There's no way I can be unbiased with OWC reviews; I am a fan.

Quick notes and overall review


The latest 5517 from Dan. This one was in the works for over a year, due to his vendor struggles and my request for dual-sided AR coatings on the crystal. Soprod A-10, Oyster bracelet with screwed and threaded links, solid end links, ceramic bezel with lume, 300m case, just a spectacular watch. Reviews and comparisons pending!
