Hey ny325,

I would get the 009J as I now prefer the blue and red colors. But I used to have a Skx007 modded with a faced sub bezel.

Henrylee, where did you get your 007 modded? Also, did it keep good time? Did you sell the 007? Thanks. I’m leaning towards the 009j. Btw, I don’t drink soda, so no, I don’t like Pepsi.

I’m just afraid the “ Pepsi” dial is a fad.

I modded it myself. If you use a hard card you can force the insert off without taking off the bezel. But personally I like the 009 but don’t know if the J is worth the extra price.

A great site is chrono24

All kinds of sizes. Great filter options to narrow things down

Garage List
i found torgeon watches while looking to buy my son a first decent watch before sending him off to college. they're swiss made quartz with traditional pilot watch styling. they have the sizing that you're looking for -- many options under 45mm -- and prices are very reasonable. quality has been very good.

https://torgoen.com/

i ended up with a black PVD watch with a GMT function. i set the second time zone to pacific time since my son is at school on the west coast. i bought my son the same watch, and he sets his second time zone to east coast. maybe a little schmaltzy but i told him it's a way we can stay connected even though he's 3000 miles away.

i've worn this watch at least once per week...sometimes several days in a row. the PVD and crystal have held up well...nary a scratch on either.
