This is a limited production of 10 pieces. It was love at first sight for me when the watch was first introduced in mid 2019.

Boy, how I love the blue enamel dial....

In a way I wish it was Sam

but I currently have only four watches in my collection (two of which I shared with you today) so your collection is a lot, lot larger than mine. Okay, I have a couple of incomings over the next few years but still, I am keeping my collection to a minimal number so that I get to wear them more often!
