My Halloween watch has arrived - saw this SO while traveling a bit ago and decided I 'needed' it, ha! I would definitely describe this dial as 'pumkin' orange. Here are some shots. ![]() ![]() ![]() Thanks for looking and pumkin/halloween comments are permitted ![]() Terry |

If not the the square seconds hand, I would own one myself. Grats on the pickup, I had a car just like that in color. Lamborghini Murcielago metallic orange. I think it was called Arancio Atlas 2CT. Not identical as it was a metallic, but very close!!! Grats, been waiting for those pics! Wear it in good health! |

Terry, Heartfelt congratulations! Still the best looking "orange" of any watch brand IMO. I am quite sure that one is a soon-to-be classic, unless they introduce it in another model. Cheers, Carl |

No way, I the only way I could afford that was if I want to live in it too. They pay well in Saudi Arabia, but not that well! I just had my car painted that color! It's long gone now, sold it during the worst of the economic slump, but the dial really reminds me of it. |

Since you posted this I can't stop thinking about Ebaying one.... I'm not sure my camera can get a much closer (in-focus) shot but I will try. The white arabics are slightly outlined in grey to give it a 'shadow' effect. The white part is 'lumed'. See what I can do on pics. |

Does the grey make it look cheap at all? A lume shot might help I believe. Thanks for taking the time to help me. I'm all over the place with what watch I want next ![]() |

I'm all over the place with what watch I want next ![]() I don't think the grey cheapens the look. It's a little hard to explain, but it gives a little '3D' effect and helps make the dial 'pop' IMO, I like it. My camera is away for a couple days so I'll try some more pics this weekend. I just put the ocean racer on it today as I think that is a more sporty strap for the summer /active months. DP II rubber went on my GMT - looks good I think. Out of curiosity, what models are you thinking of ?. |
