Why are thickness dimension(s) left out of so many watch articles?
Shouldn’t it be noted that the quartz models do not have annual or perpetual calendar feature? Does ETA find this feature, which is part of so many quartz models, is unimportant?
Colt Automatic black dial is a fine timepiece, in fact, I have one.
The Colt Automatic, black dial, was my first purchase of a luxury watch. I have since acquired a few more expensive watches, but the Colt will always be one of my favorites.
The Colt 44 Automatic is sharp, the ladies one is nice too, not too different from the older version
Glad to see they are using the “old” style bezel rider tabs on the revamped Colt.
