Same answer as for the other Basel releases - 3 to 3 months.

This 2 page article says September at the Reno Air Races. Looks massive on this guy's wrist.

Is it me or do the lugs look excessively thick?

I believe it was this thread that someone mentioned the possibility of the USB cable to charge the battery on the B50. Just saw this video on IG. Pretty cool IMO

it's not too bad... Really nice piece to be honest. Especially when you look at the watch and it lights up. Put your arm down and the backlight goes off automatically.

Just like a G-Shock! :wink: :poke:

No, in all seriousness I'm looking forward to seeing this one. Not one I'd buy, but I'm interested in seeing it as apart from the cut-off 10 (pet hate), I think it's a really nice looking piece.

Rechargeable battery, eh? Wonder how long it lasts between charges.

If it's the same size as the E2 I will cry, and I don't mean tears of joy.


I hear a 2 hour charge gives 2 months but suppose it depends on how much you use alarm or activate the lighting. It can be configured so the light doesn't come on when you tilt it
