Always enjoying looking at repros and comparing with originals. I think this new Monarch iteration from Buzz captures the shell color closer to an original than ever. The collar and knits are also spot-on which is super rare.
Always felt that my Buzz Monarch was a bit off in its shell color but did have a Talon zip at the sleeve pocket instead of the Crown.
Stitching is still too perfect and the thread looks smaller and darker, missing that nice contrast. Crown main zip tape should be darker too, etc, etc...
I'd love to get my hands on an original!!!
