I'm really enjoying this watch. It feels like a lot of thought and care went into every part and detail. This rose gold version apparently has slightly softer lines in the case to match the warmth of the rose gold.
The movement makes the image of a kikyo, a platycodon genus balloon flower which is used in tradition medicine and is the flower associated with the region in which the Micro Artist Studio is found. |

Such a beautifully simple and elegant watch. Understated luxury. If i were to decide to go with a PM watch. This would be it. No doubt about that what so ever. Such warmth and so very inviting with the front being equally as nice as the back. Not too much, not too little. Congratulations on such a lovely watch May you continue to wear it in good health and many thanks for sharing your pics |

Personally think the RG version is the best of them all

Agreed. The warmth of the rose gold softens the simplicity of the design. It becomes a welcoming effect rather than a stark one.
Thanks, guys! |

Yes, very nice. Was pleased to see one of these at a GD event and I think you really need to see it in person to appreciate the luminosity of the dial.

Had anyone seen the blue and the white side by side ? Is one more impressive than the other ? They both look sublime in the pix.

Well, they did ask for a deposit before I could even see one, so I think seeing two would be very special. I noticed that people tended to sell the pt version but the rg version seemed like (and now I know it is!) a keeper.

I was reading that the rose gold case is cold forged. That's a special process that leaves the gold harder than usual 18k gold. That way it can take a better polish. It's pretty neat that they put in the effort to do it this way. |

What I think is mind-blowing about this watch is the hour markers and letters on the dial are painted by hand! Can you imagine the amount of hand control that takes? Unbelievable!

Absolutely
The elegance in it's simplicity is magnificent. Yet the level of complexity in its creation is to be respected, especially given they originally outsourced the dials for the Platinum variant, then decided to bring it all in-house. |

I've seen and handled the blue dial platinum version. Pretty amazing.
