I don't know better than him and I hope he is right! Best, Emmanuel
great and so is the black dial ! I prefer these two colors
The pattern looks so nice that I tend to believe it is guilloché. Best, Emmanuel
To me this stands out a bit more than the others. They are all quite nice.
Which is interesting because I always thought the 5022 was at its best with a very plain white dial and painted arabic numerals.
Prefer the yellow/yellow or pink/pink variations here.
