Just saw the announcement on FB. What a spectacular release. Hand-applied lume as well no-less! :bow: And priced very reasonably as well. I can't wait to see the industry reaction to this one.

And I'm sure I'm beating Fred to this :wink: , but here's a first review already!

A damn fine read that explains how much has gone into this piece. Incredible work by all involved...but most of all Fred and his eye for tiniest of details! :bow:

What a beauty. I always wanted an original, but this would make me very happy.

Will it be available at all ADs or just boutiques?

there was a mixup w/ the ft, who published too early and then everone scrambled to get articles and social media posts online, was quite a hectic afternoon

here‘s the ft: https://www.ft.com/content/b6e91b3a-289 ... 24d72222bc

feedback is really not too bad at all ;)
