    This picture popped up on FB this morning... makes the dial look Ghost-y.
    Which I think looks amazing.
    Anyone else like it? What about doing this as a mod? ::stirthepot::

    Good to hear! What are your thoughts on the standard leather strap, Mrdata?

    Ha! I'm looking as well! Just haven't found the right one yet! Although I think I'm close to pulling the trigger. Photos to follow, of course!
    Thanks!

    Thanks Dirk. One handy thing about the included NATO strap at least is the buckle fits perfectly for non-tapered straps like this.

    I can't help but feel the speculators and dislikers over the early flippers made this watch go underappreciated for the time being. There's really something special about the brushed finish of the case, and the way natural light gently reflects off it and the silvery subdials that's just impossible to properly capture in photos. Also it's a watch that has to be worn to be appreciated due to this, those instant flippers didn't give chance to see how special this watch is through fear of wearing it and losing some value. I suspect it will be held in far higher regard in a few years time when all the mania, delays and flipping has been forgotten and we're just left with a beautiful watch.

    Like you I'm still in love with it.

    This watch really should have come with a black strap. I don’t know why brown was chosen
