Always loved and wanted this watch but never wanted to pay shops prices so when WOW had it for under $900 I grabbed it. Very well made watch (By Armand Nicolet so I'm told) 45mm/15mm, Val 7750 great bracelet. Hope you enjoy the pic's!!

Gregger, this new SWI of yours is REALLY eye-catching here !!!! cyclops cyclops Smile Congratulations
on picking one of these up sir ! These watches are honestly so beautiful, and it's astonishing
how well EVERYTHING works together on this watch. On top of that, the price is unbelievable
for ALL that this watch is. My new one..... 46145 There are alot of watches out there that seem to be much
more expensive than they should be, however, this SWI seems to give you much MORE for
the price. It's pretty INCREDIBLE imho ! Probably one of the most attractive parts of this
watch has to be the dial. There is alot going on, and it's all done in such a classy way too.
That cool textured area in the center is just EXCELLENT ! The way the pattern, and decoration
looks is stunning. It's also something you would expect to see on a very high-end watch if
you ask me sir. The way the pattern is raised up from the surface of the dial is neat as well.
At times it looks as if the light really reflects off of it to make the look of the dial change.
It's just TERRIFIC ! Also enjoying how the flat sections of the dial look as well. The silver/
gray/white finish is amazingly smooth, and classy. Plus it just helps to set off the other parts
of the dial like the textured part. The Roman Numerals for example become front, and center
as the dial points them out to you. Just the all around look, and size fits the classy feel of
this watch perfectly imho. They make the dial even more special. Same goes for the cool
looking sub-dials ! They again manage to add more personality to the watch, and dial. However,
don't take over the dial or watch either. Thinking that is the key to this watch. It does it
ALL, and it does it it in an ASTONISHING way !!! My new one..... 46145 For example the blue hands could not
be any NICER ! The way in which they are shaped is fantastic, but the look is just half of the
fun. It's the quality that helps bring it all together, and it's BEYOND impressive at every step.
The quality, and GREAT looks spills over onto the bezel here as well Gregger !!! Just like the
dial, the bezel is also ASTONISHING. First the top portion of the bezel has the nicest brushing
of the steel. That REALLY looks AWESOME ! Then you later notice that the numbers, along with
markings are etched into the bezel TOO. Just love the way that looks there sir !!! That look
together with the outer polished part of the bezel is FANTASTIC. You can genuinely see, as
well as enjoy the shape of the teeth. What an outstanding finishing touch to that area of the
watch imho. WOW ! Even the pushers aren't your average every day pushers. Their shape,
along with their size, and finish make sure that you appreciate them. They also manage to
guide you toward the rest of the beautiful case. One of the NICEST parts about the case, seems
to be that the size is very substantial, but also keeps it's elegant theme alive at the same time.
It only adds to the perfection, and beauty of the watch imho. Same goes for the bracelet on
this SWI. Between the intricate detail of the links, finish, and uniquely cool style it fits right
into the exceptional feel this watch has to offer. ..The final pieces of this astonishing watch
are the movement, and case-back. It's amazing to see even more texturing on the case-back ! Very Happy
Not only does it fit into the theme of this watch with the classiness, and quality, but it helps
point you in the right direction. Which IS this movement HERE ! What a STUNNER with all of
the further attention to detail, and beauty sir. Congratulations to you on this one ! I hope you
keep enjoying it !!!

Astonishing watch, and PICS !
