That is a stunning seconds hand
I was thinking it was odd someone would ask that regarding a clearly reissued watch, then saw it was you, and got all excited that it might actually be a genuinely old model, and that is indeed the...
I was very tempted too. Yours has the fully lumed disks?
And how is it in terms of quality and feel etc.? It's bonkers and great.
That's proper service - good stuff
This requires some explanation and details! That is either enormous or tiny - can you post some specs of it like diameter, thickness etc?
Countdown bezel? You occasionally get to choose on some watches, but mostly it's the standard count up dive type.
Yes, yes, yes. A fantastic thing.
A lovely thing, mine says hi.
There are three (maybe more?) rotating bezel variants, yours and mine are the usual dive style, then there's the minutes count down bezel and there's also a count down...
That looks cracking. And a very un-Uboatish 38mm if I'm not mistaken?
Dead seconds too! Superb stuff.
A video would be great indeed.
You can upload direct to YouTube and then just share the link? Vimeo's another option.
That's absolutely gorgeous.
I'll leave the owner to explain, but it's much much more unusual (unique?) than that. It's visually crazy.
It's 41mm no?
Edit: I see the owner also says it is. I had no idea they'd increased it in more recent variants to 43mm, that seems a bit meh.
Lovely to see one of these on the forum - long live the central minutes chronograph hand!
Is that the one released very recently? If so, nice catch - I'm really keen to see how the silver patinates over time. I personally love the look of old silver!
Have they played with the display too, to get those blue and green hues in the digits?
That looks far better than I expected Rusty! Really rather lovely in fact
Understated elegance. I was admiring that ever since Dunk posted it, it's a lovely thing.
A lovely catch!
And a 60 minute totaliser at 12! That's great.
A very functional piece indeed.
That's a beauty; really elegant and gorgeous display back
The one on the right is lush - love the expansive dial
Ah yes - I've not seen one that I recall going up so high before. The only one I had stopped at 5, and then the tachymetre scale started.
Very pretty.
What's the outer 20 track for?
They're soon coming out with a new Felix Foudrouyante jumping second at 38.5mm and thinner than the current 36mm version - should be pretty special.
Did that win out over the Habring²?
