Rattrapante

People wonder why I was so excited to have my CB yet did not put it on my wrist.
Here is why: I can not pull of this monster hercules piece.
Try hard to capture it better but difficult. Please forgive my poor iphone photos taking in the airport and enjoy the watch images.
Thoughts:
1. Don't be scared by its 44mm size. If you like the piece but concern about the size, I encourage you to try on the wrist personally.
It is much more acceptable by not having the lugs. Thats a big help.
If my tiny 16cm wrist looks ok for you, then I think the majority can accept it.
2. FP is very clever to take off the lug and enlarge the dial. The larger dial make it more sporty look to match the product line. Of course, more readable.
To take off the lug is a big correction for the damaging of the big dial.
3. The hammered bracelet is gorgeous. The texture is enjoying and it is so smooth that you don't have to worry about the problem like AP frosted gold damaging your skin or cloth.
4. Color of the dial. Very difficult to capture and present to you. It looks like purple blue. A fantastic color! Very good match with the silver grey hands.
5. Thickness is very impressive comparing to PP rattrapante 5370P and ALS DoubleSplit. I think FP does a superb job showing off his ability of designing the caliber.
You can tell the thickness by the photo it's not even thicker than Daytona .
I think I upload too many photos here so I should upload the photos of the back in a separate post. Also I think the caliber deserves another post by itself.
cheers.
