Satin Dial Splendor

Not Rolex but still matte. No idea why my pics are suddenly showing like this.

Well there's a turn up for the books.
The second watch looks remarkably like the one I handled a couple of weeks ago
I like this dial variation better
The printing on the dial also appears to be thinner, with the opening on the coronet more open/larger than the original.
The edges of the shadows cast from the hands are more crisp.

Great pics

Same finish on the dial. Different lighting and angels make change appearance.

My SD4K is still the favorite, but this new guy has been getting serious wrist time over the last three weeks.👍
