Where your daughter is
This one is starting to speak to me. How is it on the wrist? Which factory is this one from?
This is VSF. I like it though It will be probably be moved on. The dial is mesmerizing. Almost one of the best I've had. Ever. By personal preference. Seems like the black dials nowadays are more gray and less black like the 1229 vs older submersibles and luminors in general. This one has a super deep charcoal dial that is so dynamic when light hits it. I have an incoming 441/438 and I prefer the Blu Abisso Carbotech for now though I was kind of going to do a shootout between the three when I got them all and see where the dust settles. I really like the strap on it now. That and a canvas one I prefer a little over the black rubber. It's got some strap versatility. Can't keep them all though. On the other hand, now that I've been looking at it as I typed this and after putting it on that strap.... who knows damn it, lol

Thanks for the insight. I like how the gold is muted. Not too ’in your face’ More elegant than bold. How is the weight on your wrist. I am guessing lighter than most PAMs due to ceramic bezel? Strap is killer and makes the watch pop. Looks like a keeper. If you sell, keep me in mind… 😇
