What do you think? 

Best,

Nicolas

I took a class put on by the New York Horological Society which involved taking a movement apart and putting it back together again. One of the instructors was wearing this watch. What made it very special was the fact that he had been permitted to assemb...

As for the dial it is a very personal issue, I am glad there are several options for each taste. I am probably very (too ?) classical taste and my choice would go for the classic dial with assagai indexes and hands... but I am opened to variations and thi...

I think LF did a terrific job of making a more casual version of their watches.

It’s good to see you again. It’s been a while since I’ve been here. I’m sorry about the long-winded explanation on the other thread. I promise to mind my P’s and Q’s here. I like you Amox post today.

Its a very cool watch.......,
