I fell in love with this watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VIESalqknjo

The watch in the video doesn't have a red circle on the / around the dial, only the pointers on the totalizers are red.

But if I search for pictures of the Blackbird Blacksteel Limited Edition, you find only pictures like this, where the watch has that exact red circle on the / around the dial: http://forums.watchuseek.com/attachment ... g_0009.jpg


So can anyone tell me if the red circle in the video cannot be seen because of the quality o the video or are there more version of this Blacksteel Edition?
And if there is a Blacksteel Version without the red circle, can you please give me the FULL reference number?

Tank you everybody for your help!

I think it's to do with the video, or more specifically the camera. If you note, the pointers look more brown than red and I'll bet this is to do with the IR filters etc that lots of video cameras have due to the way the sensor works.

If you run the video in full screen to 6:05, you can just see the red text (which looks brown) around the outer edge of the dial. It's not a red circle but is text/numbers.....

Ah okay you're probably right, it seems to have something red / brown around the outer edge of the dial as well. At 7:51 you can see it even more obvious. What a pitty!

At 9:15 you can see the number is probably M4435911.
