I like your pics....especially the second one and the last one. Very nice looking watch, and one that I hope to acquire one day soon.

Thank you for sharing!

100% agree! I like them also.

In my opinion you have the greatest combination of dial and bezel!

Brian, a clean no nonsense beautiful dial, a big solid sturdy but yet elegant case, a robust movement.

Totally undervalued. You don't see the expensive Daytona's with a date. ...though Baselworld 2013 could change that...

Thanks Kobin! I could tell by your original comment and pics you love this piece, I just wanted to hear the specifics of your passion.
