And, shifts in very interesting ways with the light. You can see in pics 2 and 7 that it even produces a small rainbow at certain angles due to the crystalline structure of meteorite.... I'm thinking of pairing it with a more casual greyish textile strap to maximize its chameleon qualities. It's really sporty and really elegant simultaneously. This one happened thanks to you Vlad! ππ
It's a wonderful piece of high horology. Wind the watch 40 turns of the crown, set the time to the second, and wearing it for a week straight, every day. Mainly, I want to see if the watch stops - micro rotors aren't that efficient and sometimes the watches stop. Hopefully the watch doesn't stop - although mine sometimes does if I'm not active enough - sometimes the micro rotors stop even if I am very active.
I'll do exactly that, I'm scheduled to work the next 6 days in a row, roughly 11 hours each day. I'll let you know when the watch stops. I did read the 40 turn of the crown rule in the manual, this is turning without pulling the crown out??....
bespoke strap makers since I want it to have a pale blue color stitch to match the dial tones, and possibly an interesting color on the backside lining as well.... We'll see, I haven't ordered custom straps before so I don't have a manufacturer preference yet ....
From Kristjan's thorough experience, these are the additional ones where it's clear they offer a compelling array of textile options.... All to be thoroughly researched over the next several days....
