Beautifully executed. Just arrived this week. The lacquered black centre and blue/green perimeter of the cylindrical dial really do achieve impressive depth. Magical in sunlight. This is the 5th Kurono I’ve bought and by a long long way the best.

View / Get one if you can - they are a cut above the other Kuronos imo and the dial execution is unique
