    Beautiful dial, indeed. If you were trying to replace your Sinn, you've just found a wonderful solution.

    Congrats, JP and thank you for the detailed review.

    Thanks guys for the replies. Figured I'd do a little 24 hour follow up. Well, its almost 24 hours now. According to the atomic clock I synched it to yesterday its slightly less then 3 seconds slow. I can be satisfied with that. Also, by the time I had a chance to open it up it was dark outside and didn't get a chance to take any outside pics to see how it looked in sunlight....well heres a few other pics from today! Indeed, CFR, this filled that copper/bronze dial desire I longed for after the Sinn. I agree its nicer then the Sinn and also significantly (about half a grand) less then the Sinn!
    First a few with some of my other favorites for size and finishing comparisons....





    A few more of the movement in sunlight...

    Oh my! What a gorgeous face! I love it! It looks fantastic! Congrats and enjoy it. I like this brand more and more and this model is one of their best kept secret. I think many people are afraid to go with copper dials, what a mistake. I really like the deep date window too.

    Yep, A very nice watch. Thanks for sharing!
