well, it's here- just in today! Sold on my steel version of this to fund the titanium one shown here.

big thanks to andy schuhren for putting together

final ingredients as follows:

amazing ti mille metri by esdee (strap also!)
awesome modded cali dial by dow
hands form ennebi
plexi by kpoy (alex)
lume pip by saga

Its hard to describe the dial unless you have seen one- this is one of 5 prototype dials dow did for his cali dial project: this in one of the 5 which had indices too small for 3646 cases. The dial is as per gen: aluminium plate anodised black and gold. The indices are cut, then polished (as gen) with lume applied by hand. Dow took this one down and it just about shows the full minute hand in the face. The effect when installed is almost gaposis. I will measure weight of assembled watch a little later on but with weight saving of plexi and rubber strap it feels very light on. the destro set-up is very comfortable also. Weight of watch + rubber strap is a very wearable 121g
