it is actually in rose gold!

Long time no see. Let's hope this pandemic goes away so that we can catch up. I still admire your big collection of World Times.
Great limited edition. Great pics.

Compared to the original 5053, the applied blackened white hold numerals really pop. If they erased the date window, this would be a grail watch for me. That aside, I like that they moved it from the 6 to the 3 position.
