Most recent arrival...out of this world

Got my mind set on a DD40 then fell in love with the meteorite dial. Diamond is my birthstone so I threw that in there too! Not a fan of YG RG just yet on my skin but maybe I’ll get one for my 50th bday in ten years!

This dial is hard to capture in pictures but it just screams when light hits it. It has a diamond like effect to it and I love it.

I forgot to ask if you had placed an order for it and how long did it take to arrive, or did you buy it on the grey market?

Anyway, it sure is a beauty!

Beautiful watch. Looking at the photos, is it only the meteorite DD that comes with a date 0 in the month? Does the AD arrive the day after you buy it to change it to a normal date ring. That's real service! :)

It’s a space time thing. Most people don’t understand. I’ve watched Interstellar like eight times so I understand complexities.

That watch is amazing. Can’t think of a better 40th birthday present than a DD40! I bought the RG for my 40th this year too but I agree WG looks best on you. Loved Interstellar. That water planet is scary.
