Thanks everyone for the kind words. This is a pretty special one for me and probably won't be leaving my wrist in the near future. I especially love how the dial shows different streaks/patterns depending on the angle you look at it and where the light hits... super cool!

Papers dated 2 weeks ago? F$%kers still be flippin'.

Glad you got a watch you really liked but disappointed that we're still seeing flipping activity on an 18K white gold model.

Meh, not here in the states could have been bundled out the back door to the grey he bought it from. From what other better traveled members have shared in the past things definitely work differently in other countries.

You chose wisely.
You’ll never regret not getting the stainless. You would have still wanted the white gold not to mention meteorite.

You got a good dial on that one. Lots of striations and interesting patterns.
