Many thanks, gents!

One of the things that I wasn't expecting -- and that blows me away -- is that the sub-dials have been infused with the barest whisper of a warm golden hue. This can be more or less apparent, depending on lighting conditions -- but, I think that some of the photos above capture what I'm talking about. It is a beautiful and subtle effect.

My favorite TOC so far, congratulations. I like mesh but if they had a dedicated bracelet option, my IWC could be in danger.

I had to think for a second before I figured out what "TT" meant! :lol: The two-tone treatment on this one is subtle, which really works nicely, I think.

Thanks again everyone for the nice comments!
