Some more pics

What won me over was how the light would contrast with the dial.

In low light or medium light the dots can disappear to leave a darker grey dial. In direct sunlight you get a sparkling lighter grey in contrast with vivid blue markers. In good light a nice balance between blue markers and a middle grey occurs.

Some more pics for you, they are not perfect as the stickers are still on from the AD.

When i get some better sunshine will post a few more pics.

Thanks for looking at the thread and giving me a warm welcome.

Last pics sun dial

This dial is nuts. The Rhodium grey and blue squares colour adjusts constantly.

Thank you guys.

See you all on the forum.

I love this watch, and it'll be the one I join the club with. I just tried it on again this past weekend, and it is pure, understated classiness. I'm Saving for it now, and hope to join you soon. Great pic btw.

Nice piece. I think it's one of the most classy looking Rolex watches out there.

Keep going to AD and trying it on. The way the dial changes when the lighting changes will keep you interested and the contrast between formal and sport is so cool.
