    Looks polished to me, believe crown is wrong and I don't buy that the bezel is correct or original either

    Phillips stated in the ad that the bezel is a replacement. So I wonder about the result too.

    Being part German and part French I can't help but point out:

    - an umlaut appears in German and it is two dots above the letter
    - the accent mark on tachymetre is in French. It is a downward sloping line called a grave accent

    Different color scheme obviously, I like them both, but think I prefer Florents, the philips one has a lot of blue going on. Although I kinda like the red chrono sweep. Was the philips one a complete set like Florents?

    there are a lot of UG experts on this forum. . but the philips one should have the aqua bezel that matches the center color strip i think. i have always found that version far more feminine than floren'ts which i think is the best version

    And I found out the crystal has the etched “U” on it.
