Re: heuer kentucky black dial / all silver

I do like that Tino, thanks for sharing.

The Kentucky's not a model I pay much attention to - I really don't like the two-tone models but in steel and black that one is much more attractive. Some nice detail touches too - I like the way the lume dot is on the inner edge of the marker rather than the usual outside. They might have been forced into it because of the proximity of the Tachy ring and the 3-dial layout, but it's still a nice touch and would have made looking at a new watch in the dark a slight surprise, I'm sure.

I'm still not sure I can entirely get my head around the horseshoe shape though!
