Independents: Execution is fine, focus more on design

I agree will most of the above examples, two-tone would be nice as well as the blued screws. I have no skill in building watches, but since this site is about opinions I'll give what I have. Personally, I would like to see a more pleasing aesthetic with regards to the layout of the skeletonization.

Independents: Nice

Interested in seeing more pics when it comes in. Great watch. Not wearing my 99.2 so i can't remember but I think the initials on the movement are a nice, subtle touch.
