It’s unique - I concur
Here is a tray of dial plates just after they have been perfectly mirror polished. Each is painstakingly done manually and can take many hours to perfect. The slightest imperfection will be visible. Then 20 coats of blue transparent lacquer is added. With drying time in between. The tiniest spec of dust or imperfections in the lacquer will also mean the dial is scrapped. The final success rate is around 20 percent.
It’s a good morning !
I’ve been dusting the cobwebs of this one lately. And happy that I’ve done so. There’s a magical power to the CB, its superpower that with the flick of the wrist one can summon this explosion of light. There is nothing like it. ...
Yes. I feel a visceral connection when I wear my CB that I rarely get with another watch.
The dial, the materials, the proportions, and the feel on the wrist combine perfectly for me.
