The Rouge probably is for me, so I need to work on that.
The Patrimony is not yet mine -- another problem I need to address. ;-)

What is your favourite colour dial?
By: Baron - Mr Red : October 24th, 2013-08:42
Do you have a favourite colour dial or just a favourite style of dial? Or do you like variation in order to spice it up? So, for this week's Wristscan, lets see your favourite dial...be it skeleton, a specific colour, something exotic, something unusual.....

Rose gold and black is a wonderful combination! HAGWE Blomman
How awesome is that!?

Lovely piece Art. I really don't get it with these limited editions and close-outs. Far better for the consumer for pieces to always be in production, but controlled by limiting the Nr made per annum. Best! -- Richard.
Oh! What a lineup!

It all depend on the watch... White... Grey... Grey-brown... Brown... Black... Sometime you are lucky and the same watch has more than one colour... And sometimes your unlucky and need to get the same watch in several colours...! HAGWE Blomman ...
Good grief!

By: Tim Jackson : October 25th, 2013-11:41
Their galvanic blue dial is superb! The two types of surface finishing make for a fabulous dial. Circular grained on the outer chapter and the vertical straight grained in the center. But then I'm rather partial to this watch! Cheers, Tim
