it was certainly Blomman's silver dial Mimo Centric!

What an absolute stunner.

The moment I saw it, the hunt was on.

I finally found the exact same watch with black dial in pendant case configuration and of course I had to have it.

But that did not end my hunt. The silver dial really is the one I want.

So luckily I just found a very similar one!

Same silver dial including that special fan-out pattern, but not a Mimo Centric, but labelled Girard - Perregaux. Hmm, even better!

It does not have the pulsation scale, but it comes in a wristwatch case.

It will be off to my watchmaker next week as it needs a lug repair, some movement service and better plexi and crown.

Very very excited about it!!!
