    Hi All,

    I'm wondering what your opinion is of the white dial with the blue hand set. I've had 2 comments made when I first bought it. One said it's the most beautiful watch he's ever seen, 2 others think is butt ugly. What say you?

    I think it's an interesting variation on the classic Moonwatch layout, but in this case I think the date messes up the aesthetic a bit, and the cross-hairs on the running seconds just rubs me the wrong way. Steel bezel is a nice touch though, and it looks much better on the brown strap.

    Of course, the opinions of your friends, and a bunch of people you don't know on a forum, don't matter as long as you think it's cool! :)
    I have a "Siffert" Autavia with a similar color scheme, that most people think looks ugly, but I don't think I could ever part with it.

    I kind of agree with the date thing. I was actually going to put it back on the strap as I'm wearing it today.

    I wonder what the two that think it's ugly wear?
    Personally I love mine. 2015-03-24 10.55.21.jpg

    Love the watch. Date window doesn't bother me a bit. White dial, blue hands and hour markers with steel case gets me every time.

    Love this watch and colour scheme. They are expensive in the UK I was very tempted recently in Turkey at an official AD they offered me one for a touch under £5000 but couldn't quite stretch the budget as was on a family holiday

    That's a totally different watch to the Broad Arrow the OP posted, no surprise it's so much more expensive.

    Beautiful watch!!! really like that color combination,especially the way the hands catch the light. I've seen it on an aqua terra 2503.33.00 a while back and fell in love with it.
