I’ve had this for a while, it’s an old picture, but I thought some folks on here would like to see it. It’s my favourite one in the collection to wear, honestly. Fully manual wind, no seconds hand, 33mm, so definitely not for everyone, but I personally love it. Super lightweight, easy movement to service, and the whale is adorable. It was also reasonably priced when I got it.

It's beautiful, thanks for sharing. OTOH, I do not approve of the band, simple black leather would serve it much better.

A nato band is more breathable and lightweight during the summer heat. But yes I agree, leather looks nicer.
