I really love the blue dial on this. Hard to tell from screen shots but it’s very nice looking.

Looks like Guinand understand bracelets better than Sinn. Looks like better quality all the way around. The clasp is way nicer than the cheap stamped steel that Sinn uses and they don’t bother putting diver extensions on pilot watches like Sinn.
Still hoping Sinn does an adjustable clasp one day.

Biggest detracted of this pilot is the numbers on the dial that got eaten away. Hard for me to ignore that.

One day I’ll own a Guinand.

Agree on the dial markers, Ben. I can’t do that. They do have other versions that don’t infringe.

Ooh yeah, these are nice, really nice ! :) :)

It's something how neat that dial really is guys. Seriouly, in the video
it looks black one second, then this deep almost jewel-like chameleon
blue the next. :o That alone is worth the price of admission, but then
the rest of the watch is pretty remarkable too, from the bezel, to the
clasp !

You have to love it when watch companies get it, and Guinand does
it seems. Very very cool !! ..Thanks a bunch for the report Matt !!!
