Good question. That's a great looking one, and a very good homage.

Mine says hi

I wish the brown was deeper more like a tropical dial, the bezel is a bit hard to read and the hands are sometimes difficult to find in low light conditions. These are really small niggles for what is otherwise an incredible watch, packing a handwound integrated column wheel chronograph with a plexi and no date to worry about. About as good as it gets for a reissue, there's virtually no competition if you want a flyback.

Awesome! I agree; a tropical brown dial color would give it a more vintage look.

The bezel is true to the original which was also hard to read. Still a superb tribute !
