I like the black dial, the splash of blue on the tachymeter numerals gives it a unique look. -MW

Thank you, MW! :)

Yes, the blue splash makes the dial to pop! :) Best Blomman

I love this pair of Olimpico. They perfectly compliment each other and looks great on your wrist. Since becoming the GP moderator you have certainly set the bar high. Bravo comrade! ;) Best fernando

Aim high....

Yes, my friend! I am aiming high! :) To tell you the truth, many of the targets I had long before I became GP mod.... But it certainly helped me get moving! ;) Best Blomman

Yup that's it...

Black dial and white dial both are looking very strong. Matched with light and dark straps you have four watches. Great stuff. Bill

Yes, a pair with great harmony! :)

 
 By: blomman Mr Blue : August 19th, 2014-11:57
Thank you, my friend! :) Playing with straps I a lot of fun! Changes the watch completely. Will do a lot of that with these for sure! Best Blomman

WOW! What a GP journey Blomman
