tbjsIt hit me the same way, and I've never been a Field Watch kind of guy.
Odd thing, I was under the impression this watch and dial were new and specific to this watch but the other day I saw a nearly identical version (same dial) but with a pronounced coin-edge bezel (like an Oris Big Crown). Ever seen one?
RayFThat may be the “Murph”? Or is the one you have the “Murph”? Really nice looking watches. The cathedral hands really give it a vintage vibe. Is yours 42mm?
tbjsHere's the watch I was talking about--it's from a post to a Flickr watch group. It certainly appears to be a Murph with a different bezel.
I'll have to look into it...
