Congratulations: Something Special About the Red Ones
In Response To: My new addition to the family ()

Congratulations . . . what a beauty! Nice to see that it remains "in the family".

I believe that there is something special about the red Silverstones . . . the richness, depth, character of the paint, and the uniqueness of it being a red watch.

Having now seen the Fume Silverstone, in the metal (at the Bonhams / Haslinger preview, in NYC), I believe that this is also a magical paint / finish. Of course, there are those who are also strong advocates for the Blue Silverstones, as well. So it is nice that Heuer made these three flavours of the Silverstone, Red, Fume and Blue.

Enjoy this one!!
