Well, mine is -5secs for the first day on the wrist, we'll see where it settles. I've left it on the bracelet as I like it very much. With a big, chunky watch I feel I need a solid bracelet to counter-balance the head.

My only aesthetic issue is with semi-skeleton hands on such a solid watch: they look a bit out of place. I'd love to see this watch with a set of Yao plongeurs and may make that move. Since I'm not a fan of tipped seconds, that makes triple sense for me.

The dial on mine was done in C-3, so it lacks the stark white-on-blue of the production models (C-1) that looks so good. The blue anodised dial is very nice, looking dark blue from straight on in room light and much lighter outside or in reflection. The case is not the most beautiful or unique, but it is very well done. Mitch set a goal of producing a case suitable for a multi-$K watch and he's succeeded.

Pics to follow once I can get it off the wrist!
