Thanks Cru! Definitely the RG one deserves the cutouts as it would be hard to see and be somewhat wasted on the WG one IMHO.

Wow! I think the solid dial makes it a bit dressier and sets it apart from the RG. Congrats on a stunning watch now you just need the chronograph version for a full house

Thanks!! The RG is cooler looking and this perhaps dressier looking but both super cool and in terms of fit, finish and value impossible to beat IMHO!

Very nice. What is the sub-dial with the 1 through 6 for?

Hi Rich,
I'm sure Ken and others will correct me if I'm wrong, but that subdial should be the foudroyante complication, making a revolution once every second. Since the JLC is 21,600 bph, equates to 6 beats per second, resulting in a dial showing 1 to 6. Cheers, James |

Ken, your wife called, she's asking if any of us has a spare room for her, she just can't stand the ticking of dozens of watches at the same time anymore...
Now let's be serious, when we talked about it yesterday I somewhat had in mind that you'd do such a thing, I just didn't know it would be so fast! Congratulations my friend, enjoy both of them!
