    Today I photographed this rare Heuer Solunar, ref. 279.603. The dark blue dial is aging nicely to a red-brown color.

    I think a lifetime of smoking cigarettes had some influence on this patination.

    I think this has aged gracefully and handsomely. I call it my Big Dipper Constellation, the freckles seem to convey that to me.
