Very interesting that in the link the date window is black like I would have liked it.
That is interesting. The photos I posted were from Hodinkee, maybe of a pre-production version. I'd hope that the photos on the order page at Caliber 11 reflect reality.

A friend of mine tried to get one but they sold out too quickly. He's on the wait list but, with so few pieces, I doubt he'll get the call.

There are a couple of recon available. Now that I know the date is matching color it looks very nice. I still like the regular production bezel better I think.

I don't see any Siffert LEs on Watchrecon, I see a few Jack Heuer LEs but they're not quite the same. Do you have a link?

Oh my bad I thought that's the same watch. So what is the difference?

They’re Jack Heuers on Recon. The only substantive difference the whiter dial and blue seconds hand and accents. And the price.

The Siffert has a blue seconds hand and blue markers on the minute track like the original Siffert Autavia, and a Jo Siffert signature on the exhibition case back. The Jack Heuer LE has a solid case back with Jack Heuer's signature. There's only 100 Sifferts but 1932 Jack Heuer LEs. The Siffert isn't shipping until Late March/early April.

Thanks, yeah I see them now. And the case back is actually not obstructed. I like it.

Nice looking movement, I just watched a review on YouTube of a regular model.

A friend of mine was waitlisted for the watch and just got the call that one was available, so he grabbed it. Looking forward to checking it out in person when he gets it.

He's worried it might be a bit too large for him. I'm secretly hoping it is :shh:

His watch arrived yesterday and it's not too big for him :(

Despite the absolutely horrific packaging job that was done by whoever shipped the watch (the outer box was thoroughly trashed by FedEx) the watch arrived in one piece and looks fantastic.

I’m sure he will love it, it’s a hot watch. Now you just need to borrow it :)

My friend's Siffert LE arrived last week and I got to see it in the metal. Really beautiful, probably the best iteration of the reissue.

His picture...
