Z-blue

Loving the dial and color combinations of this recent acquisition. Size, shape, weight and accuracy have all been excellent. Feels very very solid. The dial can take on many different faces given the lighting situation. Just the right amount of light interaction between the white gold applied index markers, and highly polished surfaces of the bezel, case, and bracelet. Nice thick crown. Bracelet is super solid and comfortable.

This wasn't even on my radar before I tried it one one day at my local AD. But I love it. Absolutely a great choice for me.

Cheers.

-Dan
