Standard uh, hwaa wants hwaa gets.

I dilemma because it’s automatic vs manual winding and I’ve read that winding is quite tedious for the speedy. And the WR rating is another problem. Shag.

Why so bro? Any reasoning? Happy to hear from your perspective.

i feel the manual winding is not too bad except if fingers are fat then its abit harder to wind.

both your choices are strap monsters, speedy wise feels lighter in weight if the bracelet is off.

both are excellent choices, wont go wrong to keep either one.

the only turn off is the 3861 nowadays the discount is almost non existence already, i got the 1861 at 20% off just before it got discontinued.

the minor upgrades on the 3861 is nicer compared to 1861 i feel. given a choice if 2 is available i will choose the 3861 over the 1861.

For the PP fans, what do u all think of the new Calatrava 5226G? I find it very distint from the rest of the family. Much more modern and youthful looking.
