Fistly Mark i have to admit to resorting to wikipedia when it came to the term lapis lazuli. All sorted on one that now, cheers.
Your reference to Cal.15 Blue Carerra's fading to purple has me a little intrigued. I dont remember seeing a photo of one before. Can you feed me a link so i can check a photo of one with this purpling effect. Further to that do you know if the blue Cal.12's did the same thing?
Thanks - Darren

: there are blue dials! This has to be one of the nicest ones,
: though I'm very partial to the Cal 15 Carrera fade to violet
: too...
