1967 1803 YG DD (for Karis)

Ok Karis, I found the only pic I have of my 1803. It is in the safety deposit box, if I get time to go get it, I will get more and better pics of it.

I didnt like it at first, but the pie pan dial sets it apart from all the other DD

Very interesting dial Jarrett. Also the fact that the band is reversed, meaning the CL's are polished and the sides are bark. Usually the CL's are bark and the sides are satin. I'd wear that in a heartbeat.

I've not got the class or the wallet to pull off wearing that but I must admit it has a charm and elegance
