I haven't had this out for a few years, so it's got a new strap and is having a week minimum.

Grande Vitesse? Nice.

This today. It's off for a service soon so I probably won't see it again for a few months

Thanks

The phone pic doesn't do it justice at all - the detail really is exquisite.

I've had it almost 10 years now, bought new when the price was almost half what it costs today. On that basis I can't complain about the service cost #manmaths

That is lovely, I'm looking for a dress watch currently and one of these is top of the list in the new year, how does it wear?

I find it extremely comfortable on my slim-ish wrist. You do notice the weight; the case and clasp are platinum so it's quite heavy. 39mm diameter but perception makes it seem a little larger, especially with the smooth bezel and clean lines. As I said, the detail is stunning and it's easy to lose yourself for a while just looking at it

Mine has a few little knocks now and the alligator strap is well aged, soft & supple. I like that the case is showing a few (very small) scars and am currently leaning towards not having it refurbished when it goes for its service.

Missed this one, great taste! I wont be rid of mine for a while I shouldn't think. It's all the subtly of a regular GMT with a little twist and that bit of supposed rarity that I like.
