This is more than the sum of parts. Something about the smooth shape of the case, the way the movement winds... very satisfying. On top of that, the finishing is fantastic! As far as other options... I was looking at getting a VC patrimony in platinum, but when I contacted the boutique, no more left. In retrospect I'm glad that was the case!
I can see how it looks enamel, but it is silver opaline. Thanks for the compliment! PS I have an enamel dial watch coming in the next day or two....π
