They're getting closer to a nice chronograph execution on the tentagraph for sure. Still not quite there yet IMO, but getting better.

Price tag on that new masterpiece is only $79,000 :whistle:

oh, and don't forget this one:

I like the "simple" black 3hand hi beat. The Tentagraph's true to seiko style, but somehting in the handset is offputting, something in the dial feels confined. The movement is super, chunky with power reserve, the case and dial are seiko sharp as expected, I'm sure pics don't tell the tail.
Thanks Tom!

Not sure what to think about this one, it's pretty though.

I see they've upgraded my hi beat with their ever brilliant steel and a more textured dial. Nice, subtle upgrades. I like the chrono and Lake Suwa, not a fan of the textured case on the Birch.
