This is a sleeping giant! Incredible detail on the titanium case and bracelet. Five piece links ! 😮 It’s incredibly difficult to photograph the awesome dial - there are 40 GS lions within an intricate weave pattern. Also has a rare ‘dodecagon’ 12 sided bezel. 👊 There were 1000 made.

What a cool watch. Finishing and dial super. And great spring drive movement. Held at the same time as a Vacheron Historique 1942 and a Patek Neptune 5081. It held its own very well! Immaculate finishing! ...
