Thank Mike.

SALMON DIALS

ch9698 is right and they all have the same pink / salmon color even if it looks different on pics sometimes. Actually on different pics of the same ref made by different people, they will look different color although it is not the case. But even if I own...

Thanks my friend.
I guess it\'s only fair that Mr S should have a one of a kind watch. I remember seeing it on his wrist when I met him many years ago and thinking how stunning it was. I couldn\'t stop looking at it then. M.
Great on the 5124G
I not sure I like the salmon dial on a complicated watch. History or not.
