Independents: Thanks to all for the comments

I actually ordered a second dial - white with dark markers. I was almost sure that I would exchange the graphite dial for the white. However, when I visited Kari I did not bring the white dial. As you understand, I am very fond of the dark one and the second picture gives show why. Morten

Independents: Observatoire, PuristS 10 Vingt 8 and Vingt 8 dial photos

Inspired by Gary G´s impressive photos of the back of the Observatoire I have tried to do justice to the dial of my watch. The appearance changes all the time depending on the light and reflections.

Patek Philippe: 5170j and some "blue" dial Pateks

Recently I got the chance to see the new chronograph 5170j on a couple of occasions.

Jaeger-LeCoultre: I recently saw one at my AD

They keep it in the safe as a treasure. It has never been used. They showed it to me after I had purchased a JLC Reverso Quantieme Perpetuel produced in 2000. It’s a very nice watch, quite small though, but I find that fascinating. I was inspired by the information provided so I looked in some
