Frame- Stainles Face-Copper This first edition Judge in polished stainles is leaps and bounds cooler than the Judge 2. Love It!
Just arrived in the mail - picked up on eBay for $147, absolutely love it.
Frame: Stainless Steel Honed/Black Leather
Face: Black/White
Snagged this one for over half off at the Vault. Great classic styling with the honed metal on black leather. The dial and hands are way more "Oakley" than on the Judge models that followed. Any watch can have straight arrow looking hands; this one has little blades and second hand that looks like a Halo weapon. The white face with the black trim are an excellent contrast and the face looks and is really big. The date is very easy read at a distance. My one and only beef is in the Strap; it has two loops for affixing, one of which is right next to the buckle and it makes it hard to initially slide the strap through after closing the buckle. Otherwise, a fine time piece.
I was able to pick up the Honed/Black and White Leather of SAC for $190. First off, this watch is beautiful. I have two minor complaints, though. First, the band seems a bit small for a decent-sized person. Second, the chronograph doesn't seem to keep accurate time. Even though the instructions indicate that each 360 degree rotation of the minute hand of the small dial is 30 minutes, and the hour hand is one hour, each rotation is uneven, and the hour hand counts 30 minute intervals. The last bit is that the second hand on the main dial only works in chronograph mode. I'd be willing to give up the chronograph to make the second hand work normally. So, my dilemma is that I either put up with the chronograph being no right, or I deal with the second hand never counting seconds. I guess I'm OCD when it comes to watches.

This time piece feels luxurious on your wrist and draws many compliments each day. I simply love this watch. I have worn it religiously for nearly a year now. It does show signs of wear on the band and I plan to replace in the near future and wear it a little less often...GREAT WATCH.
