I liked it at first glance but then the aged lume vs bright red hands threw me off. The date window seems forced too

The aged lume/hand color and the date window look pretty close to those of the original Viceroy to my eye.

I think Heuer knocked this one out of the park. The only downside is it's $5800 ;)

One of the few reissues that I think may actually be nicer than the original.

They’ll be plenty on the secondary market. Like the other re-editions.

The only thing I'd wish they'd change is the same thing I want on all this Autavia re-editions - the bezel is too wide.

Ok. Hmmm. One I like. It may be time to try.

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

Oh fuck, that's awesome. Don't see this announcement anywhere though – was it leaked?

Owned a vintage Viceroy earlier this summer, bummed I don't have it anymore but vintage just isn't my thing. Would love to get this.

It’s hot and not bad price-wise for an in-house mvt.
I think I’d miss the running second tho maybe not it’s so hot
