Hey...this looks pretty sweet, but I'd like to get some opinions. Joshua has put out an anthracite dial (not blue, like previous versions) 089 Titanium GMT. Here's the link:

http://watchwindersworld.com/pn08904-antracite-marina-asia-7750-functional-p-2479.html

Concerns: hands and markers don't appear to be green enough, they look rather white; rehaut may be too deep (this was always a problem with my 029.

What do you think about the dial font? I'm thinking pretty damn good.

Thoughts?

I would have already ordered this if it came with a TT/SS tapered band.

Really? See a pic? This is a lovely looking piece - I really like the anthracite dials, like the PAM 118.

ps maybe Monica was really checking out his PAM under the desk .... nah! :D

Very nice!
The only concern for me is the Crown Guard Lever protrudes a little too much from the CG...

Does this look gen to you???
The pin on the CG looks a little dodgy

Yep, looks like the real deal. In that vane, the numerals and markers are a nice green, the rep appears to be more white. Does anyone else notice this? I'm going to email Josh about it.

I found a site stating that the gen has the cyclops glued to the UNDERSIDE of the crystal. It's hard to tell from any photos, but I doubt if any of the reps are made that way.

That is one nice PAM rep, for sure.

Anyone spotted missing bar marker at number @18 o'clock on GMT chapter ring ?

Not something Ziggy or Vacuum won't be able to fix while re-luming the dial, anyway :)

cheers,
