The Bel Canto Phoenix has now arrived from Switzerland and undergoing Quality Control checks at CW, Maidenhead.
Some pics of the prototype attached. Three of the pics are with the Phoenix sitting on the wing of MSO 1. The fire pic was simply a quick phone snap whilst I watched a fire-eater perform at the weekend.
That is some piece of kit right there.

I definitely think you got the best colour there. Really striking.
Ha! Not seen that face before, brilliant. Lovely watch by the way OP.

What a beautiful thing, and finally - contrasting hands!
Thank you :)
Thanks!
Thank you so much :)
Thanks :)
Yes indeed, I have an Azzurro and found the hands are so close in colour to the bridges that they can be hard to see. Hence, it's one reason I made them black on the Phoenix.
A great colour. I haven’t seen one in that colour before. What’s the carbon wing attached too?
To add some balance to this thread, I’m happy the owners seem to all love these, and I’m all for something different. However, I’ve only ever seen an ugly unreadable watch when I’ve seen pictures of these over the last couple of years - but somehow in this colour I think it looks garish too. Not my cup of tea at all - but like I say, glad to see different in the forum. Lucky we’re not all the same :)
Every time I see them I see...
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Lovely car, and vibrant colours suit the Bel Canto.
Lovely car, although the colour is a bit naff. The watch, sorry, I just don’t get it. Absolutely hideous to my eyes. Good we all have different tastes or life would be very boring.
I wish I had an MSO 765LT Spyder!!

I like that colourway a lot and think these watches are great, although not for me I don’t think.
Those black hands really make a difference in a good way too!
