He should have, but call to confirm in case out of stock.

Finally back to office and quickly opened my Dan Henry package.

Looks even better in person than the pics I had been ogling. Even the chapter ring markings are raised, not sure if they are applied indices or using some other technique.

44mm or 40mm? 44mm might be too big for compressor styled case.
they now doing pre-order for 40mm

Mine's the 40mm, I've been in contact with him about this version many months ago, so I didn't even need to pre-order haha.

I believe although it's now listed as pre-order, you'll get it within a week.

Look what just came in the mail! My preorder of the Dan Henry 1970 Compressor diver is here. For $250USD it presents an astounding value: Super wearable 40mm case(46mm lug to lug), engraved caseback, Seiko NH35 hackable movement, coated domed crystal and all-around good looks. The recessed inner bezel and the raised indices gives a nice depth to the watch, and the watch comes in a great packaging including a leather roll. Customer service was top notch and delivery was super quick. I predict this microbrand will go far.

So is a true compressor and not just the looks?

Quite good

I think that the Dan Henry is better the Seiko 5.

I believe the 44mm one might have been a true compressor. Saw a review on YouTube before. Or at least it doesn't have screw down.

But with the 40mm version he made it screw down seems like ppl were asking him for screw down, so he follow popular demand.

How's the lume though?

Saw a number of reviews saying that it's poor.
