These seem to be fun, I just picked up a watch on my trip to Dubai that I will be reviewing shortly, it's the most impressive watch I own, not Swiss, has a totally unique one of a kind functionality along side it's other more standard comlications, has a very symmetrical dial, and a highly decorated automatic movement displayed via sapphire case back in a steel case.

Should not be very hard to guess!!!

Well I hope that it works out better than mine Altair.

I thought I had it (Lange Double Split), but that's not available in steel so need to think a bit more.

That won't be an easy one to guess. I'm gonna go with Glashutte PanomaticCounter XL, highly decorated with 72 Jewels, German Made, Stainless Steel, and an awesome counter complication.

Wait...I got it right again?? I'm two-for-two in this game :!:

The GO is absolutely amazing...Congrats!! As a new GO owner myself I can say that no watch has ever given me this much joy to wear. The PanoMatic Counter XL is in another league tho WOW! Looking forward to some close up photos of that beauty.
