Voutilainen Vingt 8. Same watch different dials.
While I was waiting for my Vingt 8, I had asked Kari for the second dial. In the end, after a waiting time of less than a year, I received one watch and two dials in 2019. Good old days. ...
Those were the days.
For me the coloured dial. Personally, and each to their own obviously, I never understood not going a little more expansive in dial colours and (it goes without saying) guilloche patterns with Kari. Of course, you have the best of both. Which is the smart...
Totally agree with you Jay.
