Nice release, too close to my 1901 and I also have a 2701. One reason i got the 2701 was it's so different from the other releases - no fancy gradients or patterning, very stripped back. The 2702 is...
These are indiviuals sulking and abusing a poor lady who is doing emails and admin because they couldn't buy a watch. Let that sink in as to how sad that is. As a brand, they can sell to who they...
Quite a few have assumed the movement in this watch is from Schwarz Ettiene - SE have assembled the movement, BUT the entire reworking and design of the 7001 movement is all MING.
Not bored with...
Yea those pics don't show the best angles. So it's a sapphire 'dial' with a gradient colour like the 19.01. However the outer ring is actually a guilloche ring (not sure if engine turned or CNC)...
That seems to be the case - I bet this initial batch will sell fast. I reckon almost half of buyers overall end up being repeat customer.
Since you’ve owned a 1901 and seen the 2702 from the...
What do you mean with your last statement?
If anyone is interested, a new batch of 27.01 to be released this month along with a variant, 27.02 which I guess will look similar to the one sold in the concept set that sold at auction. In theory...

However I do not expect...

I can't wait for mine :eagerness:

I've been reading the review on W&W - https://wornandwound.com/review/review-timex-giorgio-galli-s1-automatic/
Cases made through injection moulding. Quite smart and keeps the cost down. Overall...
Thank you both. The 19.01 was I guess a bit of a gamble because of the cost, but it is definitely one of my most worn and loved watches!
On to the lugs - I guess non straight lugs have always been...
On the dial, these two image from the site sold me - the grooved/cut out markers and you can see the multi layered dial better.

I've ordered one to go along with my 1701 and 1901 :eagerness:
All of Ming's watch dial constructions are far more complex than can be shown in photos and I fully expect it 'to shine' in real...
