Incoming White Sky-Dweller

After waiting for three months with 50% down on an AD list, I gave up and pulled the trigger on a BNIB model listed on the classified section here. Very pleased I did. White was my first choice, then while waiting I started looking more closely at the blue one. Glad I stuck to my original choice. Definitely the right one for me! Love the clean, elegant look. This watch SINGS to me.

Really enjoy how it changes color, depending on how the light hits it. At times it looks white, silver, and grey. I tried to illustrate this below.
