hi tom, saw it in flesh friday, didnt mention it but at first i thought it was dust inside馃槣 then had i closer look and realized it was sort of shimmering!
As you know im no expert, but maybe not show how green i am!! but its a sort of watch that is like a magnet....you keep glancing at it.
so different to the norm, the dial is unreal::rimshot:: i can see easily why you like it.
the speedy is brill by the way, on me now!! i decided to get it on the leather strap you kindly gave me, fits ace, and looks the biz!!
regards,
Ian
