Congrats. Nice piece. That’s my dream. All three grand complications in one wrist watch.

Just curious. What makes it unique is it’s in SS?

Is the chronograph screw down pushers or like the new 26331 where they just look like screw down?

According to the archives the earlier generation of RO Grand Comps (1996-2002) had 14 pieces of which only one was in steel but it came with the older dial configuration and a blue grey dial with silver accents.

My one is from the latest generation with the inverted date sub dials and the removal of Grande Complication text at 6pm and a cleaned up leap year dial. The steel case is unique but also the red split second hand. The red “1” on the date wheel is not a unique feature as it is also red on other Grand Comps including my Rose Gold Offshore GC unique piece.

Congrats again.
