Congrats! How do you find the legibility, that seems to be the only complaint of the black dial.

Thanks all!
The story...I have a friend who works in the jewelry industry (but doesn’t sell watches), who deals with a lot of AD’s. Finally after a few years of me pleading (and seeing me strike out with 10+ random AD’s) he agreed to put a feeler out with an AD he knows well, and the AD couldn’t have been nicer. Said he’d love to help, and would get the watch inside a few months...fast forward 7 weeks, and it arrived :). I owe this friend BIG TIME, and the jeweler also. He was phenomenal, and a really cool guy. He definitely just made a client for life! |

I find the legibility to be good, not as clear as some other non-chrono watches I have, but more than adequate for a daily wearer/use. Not to mention it’s better looking that my other watches, so I’m more than happy to sacrifice a small bit of legibility for the added style and complication.
