My first
and last baby Tuna. To me a true Tuna needs to be rated to 300m, have the screw
down crystal and preferably the 7c46 quartz movement. Also I don’t like the
design of any of the 200m baby Tunas. They remind me too much of the Monster
(which I despise). I have nothing against the overall quality and I wouldn’t in
any way say that they are bad watches. I just don’t like the looks of them. Had
to try one out though just to confirm if my suspicions were right which they
were; it was an ugly watch. I might have worn this one for two days tops. Tried it out both on its
original steel bracelet and a Bonetto Cinturini 284 rubber. Preferred it on the
rubber. They cost nothing so if you enjoy the design, don’t hesitate. The
automatic 4r36 movement is reliable and the matte black dial is nice. Can’t
complain about the lume either. It’s a perfect vacation watch which won’t disappoint
you but to me, when it comes to Tunas, I prefer the real deal.
