I can only say "Wow"!!

I've always been partial to the 1815 Chronograph, and this variant is definitely a looker.

You’re a visionary, I was as most primarily attracted to Datograph, and the date function, and completely neglected the 1815, but after trying it on I was smitten.

A decade later, I added to my collection, and we’re still in honeymoon...🥂

😁 I find them visually pleasing and also provide better legibility then normal metal hands!
