a wrist shot?
I think you have to get used to the fact that the straps are going to be different. I would recommend to order the DBS strap, it's much nicer and special.
Regarding the luminescence, remember this is not a tool diving watch
Actually, the subdials themselves are luminous and work quite well.
Regarding co-branding with AM, I agree that there is a general problem with this co-branding fashion. Saying that, I think JLC did a great job and took the design to another level. This is not just putting a brand on the dial, it is really designing the concept of the watch with the AM car in mind. Just look at the red visible mechanism at 6 and how it resembles the sporty calipers.
Anyway, I am sure you will enjoy this innovative watch. Now get rid of that trouble-making Ferrari of yours and get the AM!!! LOL
