With only 3 known prototypes in the world, not many of us will end up burned

OK I give in

This was a blasphemous prototype, I think everyone can be happy it was never released ;-)

If you love these shapes, you have to love also Grand Seiko 62GS isn't it ?

Thanks for the link.

You and me both! . . .
