Pleasure! Yes, there´s a variety of small series
Hi Robert,
as far as i recall, it´s basically the same dial as regular 2599´s
The case is the same too, apart from the sapphire crystal in the back which regular units didn´t have.
As far as the "USA" goes, 2597 has been available in the US only.
Actually GP made several regional editions of various models, including the WW.TC and even one-off or special tourbillons.
So it´s no surprise!
Cheers,
Peter

Yes, Peter, the watch you pictured is what my 2597 looks like. What about accuracy of the movement? Right now its +10 seconds per day. When I first got it, it was +3 hours a day, but it seems to have settled down to +10 seconds for now.
