Very nice and different Roff, congratulations, I look forward to the review.

You're an absolute freak Sergio!

Hi Roff,

Has your new GG arrived yet?

I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures and hearing your opinion.

He posted a picture of it in the "What Watch Are You Wearing Today" thread. It shouldn't be too far away from the last page, as I recall seeing it a few days ago.

Haven't had chance to do a review yet because things have been rather hectic.

Looks superb Roff.

Can't wait to see some "proper" shots and hear your thoughts.

Looks even better in real life Roff... is it just me or does the watch have sort of an art deco feel to it?

Absolutely - that style of numerals with the architectural construction of the dial levels is very art deco. It was actually inspired by a trip Genta took on Safari to Africa, and while I get the colour cues I don't really get the tribal aspects of it as much as I do an art deco vibe. I've got to put another order in with ABP and was thinking of doing a strap for this at the same time but not sure what to get for that very reason (it's a reddish brown croc right now).

same reaction I had when Roff posted it in the WWAYWT, it does have that "vintage touch" !
