Long week and long work day today, too. Time to relax.

What are we drinking tonight? Vesper Martini?

Same watch for me, but trying out another strap combo.

That looks great! Amazing how this one and the 160th silver look great on so many straps.

Just a simplified variation of a dirty martini. 😀
Looks good. Johnnie Walker Black Label for me. Cheers!

Yeah, they really do. Silver can go with just about anything.

He's completely in love with it... like besotted. I'm getting like 3-400 photos a day via Whatsapp.
Apparently the black gold indexes sparkle like diamonds...

I think he might go mad and sell all his other watches so he can buy more of them... like Hubert, but even madder.

I might sell my house and live in my car so I can own all the Aquaracers I ever dreamed of 😝

From Jim’s photos it’s the first time I noticed the little ‘diamonds’ aren’t alligned. They’re pointing all over the place. Good thing you hardly notice their shape in the metal cos my ocd would seriously kick in. It’s not as bad as screws not being alligned but still. Don’t know if this has been discussed before.

Yeah I noticed this a long time ago. Hundreds of hours staring at Aquaracers I suppose. It has never bothered me and luckily, on wrist, I don't care the slightest. But I can totally see how it would annoy and be a deal breaker for someone

They are not randomly pointing all over the place, they are alligned with the black squares of the outer ring. So all -diamonds- markers are perpendicular to the bezel like in most of the watches excepting the Calibre 11 Monaco, where markers are horizontally alligned

Albert beat me to it. This was discussed on release, we thought it was good because it made it harder to fake to get them all in the right place. Saying that, they do look all over the place relative to each other.

Ah that’s interesting! You kinda need a sense of direction of each marker, which isn’t obvious, to see the balance. At first glance it looks a bit cluttered. Not sure this was the way to go.
