I'd be interested to see one of these in person - I think the dial does not photograph well, but some of the IG guys have gotten more interesting snaps of it. I do like that they've cut out the date feature, but yeah - these are pretty cheap-feeling movements so for under $3k I think it's more attractive, but for $7k (for the Blue Dreamer) to 5-figures for a Skipper, the only truly quality part is the dial
