I went with the Debaufre, I can't believe the quality of this watch. I almost spent $3,000 at Kenjo in New York for an Azimuth which is almost Identical.
Every aspect of this watch is high quality, I bought it to use as an every day piece but, I'm not so sure any more. $575 gets me the following, 48mm brushed case and matching over sized buckle, 5mm thick heavy waxed leather strap, front and rear sapphire crystal, AR coated in the front underneath, super luminescent all over the dial, over sized hands that have been blued, similar to the Fortis B-42, and a huge diamond shaped crown to wind the Unitas 6497 engine.
I took a photo next to mmy Navi-World, the picture is a bit deceptive, but the Debaufre is 1mm larger.
I'm thinking about getting another one and just holding on to it, I think it's just a matter of time before this brand ends up in stores and the price triples, time will tell.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Thanks for looking!
