Please post at least a wrist shot of your watch once you get it. DO NOT SCROLL DOWN IF YOU DID NOT GET YOUR WATCH YET! And please do NOT post pics in the other threads, thanks! :D

Mine arrived too! :D :thumbsup: And here are some characteristically bad pics of LE #02/15 checking in!!!!

I LOVE IT!!!!! :D

First observation - superb quality and finish. Easily as good as something costing many MANY times as much.

Second observation - it's a ridiculously hard watch to photograph (although given my photography "skills" that's not saying much!). Trust me when I say it looks INIFINITELY nicer in the flesh.

Third observation - That is a SERIOUSLY unique dial. I love the almost stealth/phantom look of the numerals against the grey dial. It makes for a very interesting looking design.

Lastly, I just want to say that I am incredibly pleased with it and very proud to own one of only 15!

The only downer (and it's very small considering that I wasn't massively pushing for it anyway) is that my initials are on the caseback and not on the bridges as agreed. Still, it's a super minor point and won't detract from what has been, and continues to be, a great experience! Well pleased! :thumbsup:

mine came right around 10:30. very cool dial! strap needs to be broken in hard to unbuckle and take off, i thought the crown was a screw-in (noob :mrgreen: )

took some pics with my netbook to show how tiny that thing is:

I had the date of prod inscribed on mine and it shows 112409

So, finally in my hands as you could read in the comments thread.

Very nice indeed!

However, as you might have read already, there is an interesting flaw on the watch case. Between the 6 o'clock lugs the side finish is not completely round. You can barely feel it, but it is very visible as you see in the two pics below. It's not just a light/angle effect - the angular change is really there. Have any other of you experienced this on your watches?

And then of course, I had to try a lume shot. This watch is rather hard to charge I noticed, but putting it for a while under a strong LED helped. A bad focused shot, but at least a try.

That is interesting Aleister, Please send those pics to Gunter and he will fix it for you or replace the watch, as per my agreement with him.

Very strange, I cant remember mine having that flaw but I will have to check once I get home to be extra shure I did not miss something.
