Those lugs. I dont want to exaggerate, but to me they are kind of a complication on an otherwise simple watch. They make my watch feel fresh even after 4 years of daily wear. And we have yet to talk about the possibilities the caseback brings. This is a d...

You’ve added a bit of mystery to a well known piece. And yes, these are special lugs.

Beautiful post! [nt]

Looking forward to how the 5227 wears everyday . It must be extremely comfortable and a pleasure. Regards.

Yes Sir Indeed.

Lovely piece.

Yep, its one of the first pieces that were created under the regime of Thierry Stern

And often find myself running fingers over the lugs. Love the smoothness of them.

I exactly know what you mean. Its a very special feeling that other watches not have. Thanks! [nt]
