When I pulled out my macro lens and took some close-ups I got surprised. And not in the usual way where the surprise is of the disappointing kind, on the contrary! I did not expect that level of finishing on this piece! Anglage by hand, black mirror polis...
And even though the hand-engraved bridges are not my preferred style for a movement finish, I can appreciate the amount of labour that went into that movement!
The YG version is very eye-catching! Of course, it could never compete in this regard with an Oyster Perpetual with a yellow dial but still, it's extremely exuberant in appearance.
We do have a lot in common when it comes to the taste in watches, he-he. And as much as I prefer the yellow gold to white I would trade my IWC MR for yours in a heartbeat. I guess we need those exceptions to prove the rule.
I am super impressed with the tradition line, and my friend just mine back to me. The finishing is IMO, a cut above the trinity in a lot of ways. Not to mention these are amazing deals used.
