Beautiful colors, as we have come to expect from you, David!! And, as you point out, the timekeeping is also not too shabby.

I was explaining the "chocolate" watches to a friend recently, and -- not being a collector -- he marveled at the fact that fading is actually considered to be desirable!! Fading / aging / maturing / developing . . . all good things, when done well.

Enjoy this one!!
