Les plus
Size of the 42X14.3mm case, fits confortably and has a good presence on the wrist.
Black dial and very neural and classical white hands: ordinary with a good contrast for the reading.
Well-worked lugs with brushed and polished finishings.
Easy handle crown.
Regular 20mm bracelets : the watch fits with almost all kinds of bracelets.
Crystal Hesalite is more tolerant of impacts than sapphire.
Tested movement that had proved succesful, very robust general construction.
Legendary space exploration watch : very well-highlighted at the back of the case.
Les moins
Some may say it looks a bit too sobre.
Crystal Hesalite is less tolerant of scratches than sapphire crystal.
Rising price, less affordable than it used to be.
The counters are not visible in the dark.
Slight jump of the second hand due to the 21600 bph : not as supple as a movement with 28800 bph.
