That´s a great way of spending a week end my dear Art. A relaxed gathering with Family at home. I wish you are enjoying so much your new home.
Great news about your new catch. Black dial? That promises something special. I´m sure your watchmaker will make his magic with this one so you´ll enjoy it so much on your wrist.
Receive my cordial regards and big Hug my dear friend. Abel

Here is my first attempt at WS...
Aventurine on an AP - apologies for the novice try - this dial is nearly impossible to photograph ideally. Cheers Peter ...
Welcome to WristScan ! ....
That’s my favourite dial on the AP. Can you tell us anything more about your decision to buy this beautiful dial ?
Thanks for the feedback!!
I had a chance to attend a complications event with AP and was intrigued by some of the more traditional novelties in the Royal Oak variety, including many of which have been launched very recently. In parallel, we got an introduction to the CODE line, an...
Very interesting to hear your experience with this watch ...
Aventurine is a beautiful stone for a dial, especially when it catches the light. Thanks for sharing this with us on Wristscan.
Welcome to WS Peter!! The aventurine dial is vary difficult to shoot indeed. You have done a good job with the awesome dial of your AP. Awesome!
I wish you´ll enjoy participating here so much and that you will keep participating in future editions as well! Hagwe! Abel
Appreciate the feedback!!
As a first timer it's been fun and cool to share the dial in WS - funny how it's probably been...over 10 years since I've lurked since the days of TP - looking forward to seeing how to participate in the future. Peter
Welcome to WS!
And a watch not featured often - the aventurine dial is really nice 😊👌🏻
Thanks much - I see Aventurine is becoming more popular this year...
I am excited to see further implementations by more brands in the future. More than just glitter on glass - it's something really special Cheers Peter
‚Dials‘ is a wonderful theme...
... as they invite to be explored under different light conditions. Let me play with a few close-ups of watches I had the pleasure to capture in the last year. A sunburst finish reveals different shades of color, either under artificial light or exposed t...
Dials that catch the eye as well as the light ...
Which one is your current favourite Henrik ?
Merci dear Abel.
Enjoying playing around with this unusual Rolex. The scratches are real and thats ok
Thks Cpt🥂
My top contenders for this theme would be the enamel dials from Patek and anything from Debethune 🤩
My pleasure dear S F! Chapter rings in early Subs and GMT were adorable details which enhanced the charm of these old watches. I really love that feature.
Yours is a wonderful example. Keep enjoying it so much. Best, Abel
Here it is
So called "Lapis" dial, but for me it looks like sky with stars😍 Tank Must de Cartier, Late 70's, mechanical caliber. ...
Rich blue Lapis ...
Perfectly executed on this Cartier and even looks good with the script and logo on the dial.
You were very much ahead of time in that case 😁👍🏻
I have to say the Musts are amongst my favorites of the recent launches 😊
Arrow flight markers ...
against the black dial are superb. It’s all about the design details.
I've seen only two other steel ref 2852 Constellations with engraved black dials . . .
. . . fitted with rose gold furniture. Not a common sight, for sure . . .
Arrowhead markers, cross hairs and a black honeycomb dial
My favourite combo in the Connies! What a beauty .
First ran across Black Connie on TZ in '05 when she was owned by Phil C, . . .
. . . falling instantly for the gorgeous dial. Tried to acquire BC from him without success; several months later, Bill Sohne ended up getting her. We were able to work out a cash deal, and the rest, as they say, is history. Best, Art ...
Hello dear Art!! What a beautiful watch and dial: Black and Honeycomb dial in a Connie is really something rare. And look at those spearhead indexes and hand set! Sublime!!
Beautiful timepiece dear Art! Have a nice and relaxed weekend my dear friend. Cheers! Abel
My brother will be here in a few hours . . .
. . . for a family gathering, and spending the weekend with us, Abel. It'll be a quiet weekend mostly at home. I've just pulled the trigger on another '50s Omega with an engraved black dial that should arrive in a week or so. It's not in good shape mechan...

It hasn't arrived yet, and will take many months before it's ready to wear . . .
. . . but I'll send pics once it arrives, Abel. Original except for the seconds hand, which I've already sourced separately. Art
That's the end game right here.
You keep spoiling it for everyone, dear FRAMII. What shall one post after you show up with these? ;-)
