Just showing off this beauty with the owner’s permission before I reship to him. Seller was CONUS Only so I’m always reshipping to him and a few other overseas friends so this is one of the benefits. I get to test drive this marvelous piece for a few minutes and it really makes me wanna get the blue one some day.

I love that they chose a dark grey color for markers instead of the usual black we see on full lume dials.

This right here makes me drool with the sexy case sides and lugs. You can also appreciate the applied indices more here.

They’re not that much different in size but the Helson is closer to the phone.

Gorgeous! But I was also wondering what was going on with those bezel numbers :think:
 
I visited my local authorized dealer and asked for 25% off of this watch they said no and I moved on. This watch is absolutely fantastic and I wished I could’ve Received a better deal on it.
 
Love those, I want the black dial. My only wish is the bracelet was all brushed.

I know how that is. I have a watch that had 2 rows of high polished links and 3 rows brushed so I just brushed it all out myself.


Somebody just shared a nicer product to brush elsewhere:

We’ll see whenever it arrives.
 
Congrats on a beautiful TIMEpiece! I'm glad to understand what the numbers on the bezel mean. Enjoy that rockin' TIMEpiece. Thanks for sharing
 
What an amazing AND beautiful watch! These 'Kon-Tiki's' are amazing, and they always make me remember Thor Hyerdahl's long voyage on the Kon Tiki, trying to prove that it was possible to travel intercontinentally in a boat/small ship made of papyrus. Unfortunately, I don't think he proved much of anything, as his team had some modern damage control amenities onboard, such as big blocks of Styrofoam to help keep the kon-tiki seaworthy, or at least afloat. And I am TRULY digressing here! Sorry about that, '503!

Getting back to the timepiece, it's truly a work of art, especially with that engraving on the back! But the real art is that dial design that is, well, the word that comes to mind is sumptuous. And anybody with a pair of functioning eyes can check out the amazing lume shots above. Beyond this, though, is the fact that you have a pure, Swiss made timepiece, whose innards make all the difference in the world in terms of how well you're able to keep up with the passage of all that time, whether work or leisure, that always seems to fly by so #$%&ed FAST! It will definitely prove itself to be rugged in the field, but still elegant enough to allow you to break bread in all the hoity-toity places you might want to visit. Sooooooo, congratulations on this amazing pickup, one that keep you accurate for all you're days!

And, FWIW, I am soooooo jell-jell, over here...! And, apropos of nothing,
this was my 3000th POST!! :happy::hat::dizzy::lol:
