Sarpaneva's Moonface - got to love it!





Ursa Minor (Little Dipper). As you can see one of the 4 screws that hold the dial is incorporated in Polaris (North Star). Very well placed if you ask me. 





'Two tone' finish on the hands. Brushed and polished. I opted to leave the second hand out. Who needs seconds?
 




one of the ten





Purple dial (aparantly the most difficult dial color to produce) and the Northern Stars filled with purple AGT. There is a down side though. They glow briefly and only when hit by UV. So that makes it extra rare to see them shine. Have to atmid that I got a small pocket UV light today in order for some play time with the stars at will. 





I'm in love. Stepan: You knocked it out of the park!! Thank you!
