    I like it. Happy that they didn't make the crown and pushers in gold... uff... Just the right amount of gold.
    They could have swapped Buzz and the Footprint – but it's ok this way as well.
    The SS bracelet is gorgeous - the cork bracelet is ugly though.
    I guess I'll call my OB to reaffirm my interest.

    Nice, I’ll buy one. Was fearing for another Apollo 8 in steel/gold.

    'That' is one of my favourite features of this watch. Very classy.

    I really like the watch. Was not sure after reading all 60 pages of this tread...but at the end I like the watch. I'm not happy with the size of the box - I mean I should build one more room to my house to be able to store these huge boxes :)

    Yes, and it will be extremely limited and very expensive.

    So, one more reason to set $9,600 aside and save for a modern 321, in gold with straight lugs!!:rolleyes:

    Not a one-looker, but I like it. I definitly would buy the bracelet, for the watch itself I'll take my chance on unsold stock or dropping second hand prices.
