Congrats on the new Globemaster. A real beauty and, I think, a future classic.
A great example of design, technology, and construction coming together extremely well. Among other attributes.......I love the case shape, the mostly brushed surfaces, the tasteful polished case shoulders, and of course the tungsten (or tungsten alloy) bezel.
I’ve been considering one my self - and trying to decide between the blue and white dials. I’m leaning towards the white, but have only seen the blue in person. However, my AT2500 with heat-blued hands/indicies has a silver/white dial, so a blue dial Globemaster might be a nice contract.
Do you happen to know any details on the material used for the hands and indicies? For example, rhodium plated, galvanized, polished white gold, etc?
I’ve heard some say that the bezel too closely resembles, or is trying to look like, the Date Just fluted bezel. I don’t agree based on both appearance (“frosted” tungsten Globemaster vs polished DJ bezel), and good design and engineering: The Globemaster’s bezel is a very hard and tough material purposefully chosen to resist scratches and impact, which one cannot IMO say for the DJ fluted bezel.
My only quibble personally, is it would have been nice to have a screwed down crown.
