                  Ah power! I like the way it aged!

                  A pity the new models nowadays usng superluminova wont have such effect in the long run. Make me gian again to look for a vintage sd lol. Tio poison.
                  I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch, I dont need another watch.........

                    Thanks guys. The vintage bug has seriously bitten me this time. Thinking hard about a cream or orange hand explorer now.

                    Here's a better shot (and some poison ) of the dial. The bezel insert is original glossy type and the pearl has aged nicely also.
