Unfortunately I had to give the black one back. On the face of it though I prefer silver ones like tritto’s to be honest. Just personal preference though.

Even when you have to give them back, it's fun to try on something cool isn't it. I think that, given the choice, I'd have the steel case over the black case too Pip.

Don’t know about yours but the pushers are fantastic on this, much nicer movement than my 6139 or my 7Axx’s. the black case doesn’t do it for me, and for an eight grand watch I’d want to feel something when I looked at it.

I'd say the pushers on mine are a little better than the 6139, but not markedly different in action. The 861 in mine is a contemporary of the 6139 (based on something even earlier really), where the model you have there must have a thoroughly modern movement in it.
