Goes well with suit / long sleeve as well as weekend wear. In particular, I love how the dial changes color and appearance depending on surrounding lighting.

Here'a recent shot.

Beautiful shot Ben, thats one hell of a beater. I just read the article in the new WatchTime about their perpetual and it really is an ingenious and well laid out design. I think we will see a lot more from this company in the future.

Which imo will limit the number of people interested in the watch.

My brain is wired to read the date:

Day, Date & Month

I am American and I also agree on Day, Date & Month. It just makes sense to me so

otherwise the day of the week at the end seems like a tagged on afterthought on the watch dial.

Looks good if under 40mm, but at 44 and 12mm thk, it is huge

Too big and screwy aperture layout.

I must say their homage 43mm portugieser with the 8 day movement is beautiful however:

At only 750 pieces Steel and 175 Red Gold could these possible become highly sought after ?

I love the new annual calendar. I'm looking forward to the size. Does anyone know the release date?

My AD has already taken an order for one.

I like the S/S version of their homage piece.

its a great looking watch but i still prefer the proportions of the traditional 7 day

The top of the dial looks like a Rolex DD.

They could have been more imaginative.
