This one may not be "historic" but is almost exemplery in beauty without
an over exuberance in decor and styling.
It is one of those things like a fighter jet plane, can't be any serious beauty/aesthetics department there, but they (some) look beautiful just from functional design.
DB28 part 18 of 33, BEAUTY can be a WORLD, a REALM that is able to insulate
and to draw inwards and protect its owner. I know this. I work up to 16 hours to 18 hours to see suffering and complaints...sadness. Now, after 3 decades of collecting all sorts of things beautiful and of great controversy, I came across several objects, ...
huge congrats again...tap your opinion here...

DB says it is "super resistant" compared to ss316, but I don't
think anyone has tested that....
thanks for sharng this great moment with us...
the moment of wearing your personal DB28 for the first time. It looks to me like a happy marriage between technology and art. Enjoy it and wear it in good health, Stefan
Thanks and I hope the owners out there will come to share more pics of any watch of this
level, this altitude of finish, and their long term experiences....
Thanks for sharing again and again!
I just cannot tire from looking at this stunning materpiece of a watch. Regards Rene
Congrats on another stunner!

It was a really nice trip reading this "adventure"

the only word that comes to mind is exquisite.
thank you for all the pics and your thoughts Bernard. best Graham
