Thought the same as Der Amf re the minute hand looking a fraction too long.
Anyone know what the case height is please?

My only suggestions/query would be to make the font slightly thinner. If I'm not mistaken and when comparing the drawings alongside the photos, the drawing font appears slimmer. IMHO the real thing looks slightly unbalance with thicker font. It's nit picking I know, but I think it still makes significant difference.
Is a non-date Waffle dial likely?
I agree with this suggestion, a slightly more subtle font or text size would look good.Originally Posted by OldHooky
And is there a way to minimize the gap between the case and the first link of the braclet? Or would that hinder the movement of the first link?
But overall it's a great looking watch!

It looked better in the original renderings, as per post #26.
Every watch a story.
I wonder if there are any updates for this project... and any chance that it will look great in a green dial?
Drawn between the black waffle and the linen dial on this one. Having seen the gilt dial Everest I think the linen dial would look incredible with gilt handset and markers. It could work on the black dial as well but there would be, for me at least, a strong association with the black and gold livery of JPS formula 1 in the seventies. That’s a good thing I think.

I don't know how well a gilt minute track would print on the waffle & linen dial.

Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".
I was thinking of a black minute track on the linen dial but gilt surround on the raised hour markers and handset.
Pretty much like the white dial IWC up the thread.
I’ll second this, any updates on a time frame for this project?
