The rest of the dial features are distracting me from the hands, but their execution is superb in the white gold.

Hands

I recently picked up a macro lens for my iPhone and have been playing around with it over the last few days. The first subject of my exploration has been the hands of the watches in my collection. I have been interested in looking at the differences betwe...  

i just saw in insta a macro from our fellow purist on 'numerals print' on date window by a very respectable brand on a very hyped watch !

i'm sure it left me with exactly your question - should there be a new standard to judge a brand ?!

Actually, I was able to take this photo.

Here (to my eye) the underside appears polished, and is reflecting the texture of the dial as well as inner portion of the minute track. What a nice little surprise to see. ...  

VC passes! :D [nt]

I think we need to include the Grand seiko also. I've seen some close-up pictures of the dials and hands of Grand Seiko, and they are amazing. Undoubtedly can be compared to the swiss.

Great post, Andy!

I love those Traditionelle hands! They are not only distinctive and perfectly executed, they also greatly enhance legibility of the time in different lighting conditions. And those colorful Speedy hands.. just put a smile on your face šŸ˜„ HAGWE Daniel

Absolutely agree. Even in deeply low light they are quite legible with no lume. Their execution is flawless, IMO.
