Swatch Sistem51 - Incoming

Just thought I'd share a few quick pics of a watch my wife just gave me as a birthday gift. So glad she does indulge me in my obsession with watches once in a while . The Sistem51 had always peaked my interest since it's been announced and it's finally available, so my wife decided to get one for me

I was debating between the black or the red version. I preferred the black version's dial a bit more, but in the end decided I wanted a bit of color, and the silicon strap on the red version was a lot more comfortable than the black version.

Definitely a fun watch and pretty neat in terms of the engineering behind it (I'm a geek after all). Hope you enjoy the photos.

Very nice!

And, after red and blue, here's black. Just need someone to post a white.

Thanks Chris! Took quite a while for my wife and I agree to the flooring, but glad it turned out well

Quick pic of the watch out and about at the city fair. Worn it for the full day and very comfortable overall. Keeping good time too.

It's quite large (42mm) so depends on how large your son's wrist is, may wear large. But I would definitely recommend everyone to check it out, such a fun and interesting watch from an engineering perspective.

Doesn't quite compare to the Platinum DD2 I tried on the other day , but still love this none the less.

You should. Instant cult watch. I loved my swatch when I was young.
