Carbon fiber dial.

The lume is actually very good.

Main crown and pushers.

The crown at the 9 o'clock side for setting the city ring.

The main European timezone is marked as Maranello in red, Ferrari's hometown and signature color.

Key Points from the Discussion

The WW.TC lume is a rarely seen feature, and the detailed shots are highly appreciated by the community.
The Ferrari F1-053 is one of several GP-Ferrari collaboration watches, and the world timer complication is particularly appealing to some collectors.
The carbon fiber dial offers a distinct look in person, and the WW.TC is considered a complex and enjoyable watch by the author.
The 43mm case size of this specific WW.TC version is noted, with a subtle 1mm difference from the current 44mm models potentially impacting wearability.
The bezel and lugs of the watch appear highly polished, resembling steel rather than titanium, which is an interesting aesthetic detail.

Great shots, lovely watch!

thanks for sharing. I find it interesting that the bezel and lugs do not look like Titanium at all, they seem highly polished like steel. Like it a lot! CC

I did, a bit more than 10 years ago. Could have gone back in 2012 as well, but stayed loyal to my work.

I knew of chronos which I don\'t like too much. I also know of some rattrapante ones which are cool but in general I don\'t buy chronos any more. I will check the WT versions, since WT is a very appealing complication to me. Thanks for educating me Luis! All the very best, Alex
