Though I'm not sure it was a US edition, and lacks the alarm of course. But the "Blue Double Gradient" dial with off-white numerals is certainly beautiful, and it came with a very nice strap. If that's the watch Dean was referring to, I can certainly see the appeal.

1/ THE CASE AND CASE BACK: I don't really see any Pros to the exhibition case back personally. Would the watch be slightly thinner with a solid case back? Would the alarm sound slightly stronger with a solid caseback? If so, I would consider those significant Cons against the see-through case back.

I love the manual movement and the lack of date.

Especially if it makes the alarm less effective? Does it make the watch slightly thicker too?

Now to organise the engraving!

Your enthusiasm for the brand is infectious.

I always enjoy the photos of your Burgundy (and all your JLCs). You're a much better photographer than I 😁.
