On to the next model then!
And knowing you guys are all about the lume, I fixed that too! bigger wider appliqués with more lume. Of course the second hand with lume, and no He valve.

Congrats, Todd! Your dedication and perseverance is admirable; and that's an understatement.
Re: The big one (for me) has landed
She's quite a looker Todd, congrats!
I agree, a no-date version would be stellar.

Re: The big one (for me) has landed
This one is really nice, Todd. I can't wait to see the white dial version.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.
Re: The big one (for me) has landed
Looks killer Todd... I dig the slate grey dial.
pure awesomeness :

I didn't see the appeal of the smooth bezel in the renderings, but this changes everything. Amazing design, Todd.t20569cald wrote:

Re: The big one (for me) has landed
Oh hell yes. if these are the bad pics, I can't wait to see the good ones. I am going to have to figure how to make this happen. Congrats, Todd. It must be a great feeling seeing this all come together, especially given the hell you've been through.
You give respect, you'll get respect - you just don't know your place.

The profile is amazing. It's nice to have a slim yet robust watch. Most are too thick these days. Perfect proportions overall!t20569cald wrote:Took awhile, 3 years in fact, but it is built! Cell phone pics only so far, as I just put it together right now.
There was a case back with a scratch, so I used it for myself. Bezel is Kolsterised, and looks good.
More to follow next week.
Looks great....
Would love to see a no-date version as well.

So Clean!
Re: The big one (for me) has landed
Yeah Todd, this is a stunner ! Love the pure look of the metal throughout
the watch. Always like how you can often see the brushing, or lines that are in
different watch bezels, but to see it in the dial is remarkable !!!
Phenomenal Todd. Phenomenal ! You should be so proud of how it all turned out.
So cool to have a chance to see ahead of time like this. Thank you !

It is slimmer than the CD2 by 1.5mm and the crystal is actually slightly domed too.pbj204 wrote:The profile is amazing. It's nice to have a slim yet robust watch. Most are too thick these days.

Gone is the He valve that no one wants, and to be honest if you do find yourself in saturation later on, while your in deco you can always just pop the crown open for a second, should you be deep enough to warrant it. On a 80M saturation, you wouldn't bother anyway.
