Nice, but too much writing on face. Engrave it on the back.

This is my Blue Ti FF 452mm.

It has become myth daily beater.

The daylight was not great to show off the blue dial or bezel.

It's a subdued Blue. I always describe it as a Grey / Blue.

I have the same watch as the OP also but mine is an Act 1 Series 1.

Engraving on the back of a 42mm Series 1, II or III as well as a Ti model is not really an option.

The casebook is a crystal see through back. There is no space for engraving.

Please do share more, I am very curious about this watch especially since going 2nd hand route/gray the value is interesting. I see them go for -35% of MSRP, full sets including bracelet...
