Also notice there is paint fade around the date window I bought the watch with the idea I would have to replace the dial but now I have 2nd thoughts, I'm going to ride it out and see what happens, It's also the only watch I own with no cyclopes, which I kind of like. Feel free to weigh in with any experience or thoughts.
I think you should keep it...it’s just charming...!

Best to angle your photos of modern watches so that the rehaut serial numbers aren't visible. Just sayin...

Thought of selling this at one point in time. Glad I came to my senses and decided to keep it.

Blue dial thread!
I have had this on every day since I received it…. Rolex/Tudor blue is so nice.

Did anyone see the Lapis dial gold sub Jacek had? It was really nice, box/papers yada yada.
