Thanks, it's a truly wonderful watch as well you know.

This watch flies quite a bit below the radar for most people, and because it is so slim, it doesn't stick out over my shirt cuff so most people don't notice it. I actually really like how subtle it is in most cases. When it does make an appearance, I have received a number of compliments on it though, as with most complicated watches, most people have no idea what's behind it. Watch aficionado's notice it immediately, though I suppose that's true of any watch with this crowd. smile

Like most folks on this site, I own a few watches and so rotate most days so this isn't on my wrist every day. But when it is, I have to say it is easily the most comfortable watch I own. The size (at least for me) is perfect, it keeps impeccable time, and unlike folks who hate a date window, I really like and use the date display items on my watch. I suppose those that hate date windows likely aren't a big fans of perpetual calendars anyway.

This watch just gets better and better with time, so I feel very fortunate to own it. Its style isn't for everyone, but you really can't argue the merits of a perpetual calendar with a movement only 4.2mm thick! It's a wonderful watch, as you know, so do wear it in good health.

This was the year in which I got into watch making; needless to say seeing this watch was a big part of getting in to watches for me! This watch takes me back to high school when I one of my projects was to code an analog clock and calendar from scratch. ... 

IMO, Navy is THE way to go with this watch!

It will beautifully pull the moon phase out. Congrats! -Dean

Very nice! I'll be excited to see it on a blue strap.

Here is its black dial cousin, sporting a custom CF strap for summer in order to match my Crockett & Jones loafers. ...  

Impeccable paring! The black dial version was ultimately my main alternative to the silver dial (and has the better movement display via rotor).

Also out of curiosity. Have you been asked about the watch in the wild? A few of my colleagues have complimented the watch as a great chronograph (given the 3 dials), to which I just replied, "thanks!" I'd imagine, the more recent Avenger (MCU) also do no...

Wonderful showcasing of the watch, especially a detailed look at the thin case; the profile at the lugs and presenting intricate

Having worn the silver dial version of this watch for a year; I'd have to agree with your statements about its subtlety and comfort level, especially when wearing a long sleeved oxford shirt. In most cases, the watch is revealed partially (if that) when n...

Awesome timepiece! Here’s on with slate gray dial in WG you don’t see often.( Sub is mine, nothing JLC) E ...  

Amazing dial! Thanks for sharing- Love the subtle grey and white pairing; the dial must have so many looks at different lighting!

Brings out the simplicity and elegance of a thin perpetual calendar even further! Have you thought about a grey strap, or is the watch mainly for dressy occasions?
