    Very nice, Steve! I like the skeleton 24 hour hand, but can we do without luminous material on it? We could apply it to the perimeter of the skeletonized triangle, which would make it white. Or we could use orange lume on the triangle but it would not be an exact match to the orange on the dial or hands.

    Also, I think the opening around the crown needs some refinement. I would like it to follow the curve of the case/bezel, with the sides as you now have them.

    We should have a revised drawing in a day or two.

    Mitch

    Steve you are coming into the fold on this one so nice, I like it except for the crown guard, maybe I am the only one but I like the original crown guard better . I know the refinement of that is not over yet.
    Great work steve, that just serves to help Mitch and us visualize so much better.

    No I also like the look of the original crown guards.

    Lets try this one... a white lume triangle on the gmt hand and the crown cutout curved a little more like the case edge... of course, these all had the reflector markes rotated to line up the lines and use odd hour numbers...

    The white triangle on the GMT hand looks great Steve, still like the full concept of the original crown guard. What does everyone else think?

    This ones a little bit closer to the original but giving some better gripping space to the crown...

    The "13" looks like "31" on the revision. A small issue, but a killer for me. Others opinions may vary, void where prohibited, enter as often as you'd like.
