Extreme closeups - movement finishing on the Tradition 7027
I apologise if this is too many threads too close together from one person on the same basic subject but well new watch excitement met a new macro lens with 2x life size capability so here we are. I posted some closeups in my initial thread here but we're...

Agreed on all points

I haven't had the chance to inspect a recent model myself closely
but pictures suggest nothing to worry about with the Tradition line up at least. These pictures dont go in as close as I did but show signs of the same finishes. monochrome-watches.com
I love your passion and love for this wonderful 7027!
Let the posts come. And enjoy this real beauty to the max!! All the best Thomas
