Scan Day Pairs : when good watches go bad? *PIC*

Here is a unfaded 1533B and it's faded brother where the dial has gone a beautiful shade of purple.

There is a lot of hype over "chocolate dial" speedies and faded rolexes, but for me this is my favourite one where time has really had an amazing effect on the watch. I wish Heuer had produced this 1533P!

ps: sorry for crummy photo, no time to retake
