All you need is one, it's not a bad thing to be one and done with a particular model or watch for that matter

Looks fantastic, are all the dials individual and slightly different considering the base material?

It's white gold. Meteorite dials are not on SS unless it's customized. One SS Daytona with meteorite was sold not long time ago around 12K.

Yes I believe each meteorite dial has its own patterns! That's why it's unique!

Last photo above the letter "L" of OFFICIALLY. It's small but clearly visible under 10x.

The dial is indeed special and unique, though I found a rust spot not long time ago. It is really amazing that the dial was from outer space and already billions years old! How cool is that! It's also interesting that meteorite is considered as "Fire" in Chinese Wu Xing, hence some people don't like it because it might bring bad luck to them!





Very cool. Don't short shrift the PM in this equation. Gold is no slouch at 3 billion years old and technically comes from a planet in outer space as well. I call first dibs when/if you sell it.
