Some live shots I took recently to share here. These are the regular production edition, not the Limited Edition version Fx shared earlier. At 44mm it is too big for me unfortunately, which means the lovely chronograph LE version (in red gold and steel) w...  

I prefer the LE version due to the hands & numerals colors. Fx

At first glance there seems to be no difference between the LE and non-LE (apart from strap / bracelet). Is the lume on the hands / numbers of a different colour?

Good spot! That is the key difference The regular edition has a white lume The LE has an off-white / faux patina lume Cheers Robin

The difference is not as apparent in pictures at first glance.

And indeed these details are best appreciated in the metal. Photos don\'t do the watch justice I feel Cheers Robin

The Singapore Vlad is awaiting Muahahahah :p

The LE version has more vintage charm for sure Cheers Robin

I prefer the LE. My MB shop has reserved it for me, and I\'m looking forward to have a closer look at it soon. I will report soon. What do you think of the movement? Best, Thomas

I look forward to your incoming post For the Unitas movement found in this watch, I didn\'t find the finishing anything special to be honest. But the large balance wheel has a visual impact I like. These days such large balance wheels are getting rarer. C... 

Nice watch on the wrist. But the finish of the movement is not really appealing to me. So this model didn\'t sing loud enough to pull the trigger. Cheers, Thomas

You will like the finishing of the calibre 16.29 Thanks for the update Thomas! Agree the Unitas movement on the Manual small seconds finishing is just industrial finishing so nothing like what the Villeret manufacture produces Cheers Robin

Hope I\'ll get the chance soon. Cheers, Thomas

Namely the Pythagore Aviation. A tad smaller at 38mm, but with a very nice Cal. 48 movement - I like that one better than the new one and was close to pulling the trigger, before the SBGH035 came along.
