I had high hopes for this piece!

Thank you so much!

For sharing your thoughts and observations. I was interested in this piece because of the Rolex Onyx dial. It’s so sexy, for the lack of a better word. I was hoping the GP one would have the same type of quality of the Rolex one. Thanks again.

The hands look flat and thin and cheapen the overall look of the watch

At least based on the picture.

Your photo convinces me more...

Not convinced, either. [nt]

I think its a limited edition. Is there a 38mm version. And is it luminous.?

Asking. And curious. 😊 Geross.

So you bought one. That's good. I'm happy with mine.

Will take pics on friday when I collect it. I don’t know why I bought it, but I was contemplating between a selection of PAM (the 8 days version) and the standard blue laureato. The dial seems to pull light in, and I like the use of Onyx.

More for others. :-) [nt]

judging from the reactions here seems to be a miss, but im strangely considering it. the photos do make the markers look a bit tinny and cheap, not sure if thats just the glare from the picture. i wish more companies did more variations on dial material l...
