Sorry the other one got away Steve...That's nice, but prefer yours better even though it has diamond accents. Thanks.

Yep Don...Wow! Where in the world was I when this post came out? Jeez!! Oh well, as they say at Starbutts' Coffee, "better latte than never," right? Yeppers, you betcha...
This beautiful Croton is almost symbolic in its testimony to what "da Merm" and company were ~ and still are ~ capable of doing, even now after its long recovery from having its factory/HQ nearly destroyed during a rare hurricane in "Joisy," some years back. It's also no secret that I have a pretty big soft spot for Croton and its sometimes odd little divergences from the horo-norm. Still, even some of their silliest offerings (like the "Jaws" version of a dual time quartz/auto combo, so called because there's a picture of Jaws and his wide-open mandible on its 'big' dial. Yeesh!) are well made and wear tough, year after year...
SoooOOOooo, after that, please allow me to congratulate you on this way-cool acquisition of yours, and while it perhaps is on the big side for a dress watch at 48mm, I still think it can easily be worn as such, though you might want to choose something else if it fails to flatter your wrist. Bottom line, you done real good, mon ami!! May you enjoy the HAICH-E-Double-HOCKEY-Sticks outta it for many, many years of happy & healthy wrist wear!!
