Mixing it up with the stones this week - First onyx, today tiger eye, we’ll see what else may get some wrist time (this one needs a cleaning before it’s locked back up, there’s definitely some schmutz down in the corners). T Swiss T Mark, although there’s no lume on the hands (nor on the dial, of course).

Love this watch - Not often seen, and the chatoyance on this dial is so lively.

Continuing the whole “get stoned, stay stoned” theme for this week (following the Onyx and Tiger Eye DDs), here’s another of my very favorite pieces - A White Gold 18239 with a lovely, intensely blue Lapis Lazuli dial with no hour markers, lume hands, and T Swiss T marking. The WG/Lapis DDs don’t seem to be quite so scarce as the WG/Onyx ones, but it’s by no means a common configuration. The silver (white gold?) text looks superb against the blue - I wonder if it might look even better if Rolex had used the white enamel hands they used with dark Buckley dials.

I’d originally planned to seek out a Lapis 18238 in yellow gold, thinking that the yellow gold furnishings would complement the small yellow gold flakes and veins often found in Lapis Lazuli. But, once I saw this white gold Lapis, I was well and truly hooked!

Are you using quick-release straps or is that too gauche?
