Xetum Kendrick Hands-On
We've discussed Xetum watches a couple of times before on worn&wound. First, with a look at their all black Tyndall, and then with a more in-depth hands-on of their Stinson model. Xetum's watches are intriguing pieces, with a distinct design that has managed to keep them fresh looking, although they have not come out with many new models. Well�� now we have the pleasure of introducing you to their newest watch, the Kendrick.Case: Stainless SteelMovement: ETA 2824-2Dial: WhiteLume: YesLens: SapphireStrap: Nylon NATOWater Res.: 100MDimensions: 40mmThickness: 11mmLug Width: 20mmWarranty: 30 day return / 2 year movementPrice: $995The Kendrick is a new model by way of a redesigned dial and different strap options that combine for a very different aesthetic. If I were to summarize the look of Xetum's other two models, the Stinson and Tyndall, I would say they are clean, elegant and conservative.

15400 vs 15300 and availability in Dallas or Houston
I'm fairly confident I want to flip my Daytona for a RO. The only problem is...which one?Also, I cannot find a 15300, or even a 15202 for a 39mm size, to try on anywhere in Dallas! Does anyone have any suggestions on where to look? I go to Houston every now and then, so I'd be okay with any suggestions there.I think I'm more of a fan of the dial on the 15400 and colored date wheel, but I still want to see the 15300.My wrist can really support any of them, but I'd love to get opinions of the Forum. Below are wrist shots of the 15400, 15450, and a shot of the daytona and how it looks on my arm. The 15450 isn't under consideration, but it offers some perspective.

Finally, I can relax...
Just got this yesterday from my new favorite AD! Like so many others, I love everything about it. Now I can stop all the worrying about if I would ever be able to source one from an AD or if I could accept going the grey route and paying a premium. This will be the 4th Rolex in my collection and I think the last for a little while, as it checks all the boxes for me.SD43_412.jpg

Would you pay retail + tax on a Bruiser?
Hello, I have been looking for a GMT for a bit (couldn’t decide between Pepsi or BLNR). Today I went to my Local AD and he has a bruiser GMT New in the Box at retail + 8% tax. That watch is stunning and I think I prefer it over the Pepsi. Good deal?
