Here is a BR version, just impossible to see the time especially due to the fact that the crystall is reflective.

 

 

Now, with a little PP (post-processing) the dial is visable,,,,, 

 

 

of course, macro flash photography can produce a beautiful vintage dial image

 

 

 

Would love to read your opinions, what's your take on this? 

 

 

Cheers,

Well, I think that >>>

This kind of watch is perfect for Marylin Manson, or for  Robert smith when he wrote the darkest songs of "The Cure"...

Personally, I don't see the interest of them.

But, as always...Tastes and colors...

They're like shower caps for bald people...

I understand the attraction, i.e. 'Man in Black', but I fail to understand its possible use.  In my opinion you need more than taste for those, you need the Aigle eyes.

First off...Hi Asi and hope all is well...

Secondly,  I cannot understand that watch at all...although I have a hard time with the Bell & Ross square's in general...

As Yves says, what could the function be...and then I remember sitting in the movie theater ( numerous times ) and looking down at my Panerai to see what time it was and could not read the dials in the dark...and thinking WTF...and i still love them...

go figure...

Cheers
