Nope, all original I've owned it for quite a while and it's been completely gone through.

I noticed that the color of the date font is different (red for 22 and black for 23) in the 2 pictures you posted. I didn't know that the new model had a roulette date wheel. Very cool detail!

By the way, I'm a lefty too, but I always wear my watch on my left wrist. And I take it out whenever I write or type (which is most of the time while I'm at work). I tried wearing my watches on my right wrist, but I felt weird. I guess I got used to wearing my watches on my left wrist since childhood.

Great pictures of a great watch. I will post a pic when I can get the snowflake brigade together.

Is that the NATO from the bronze?? If not who makes it.

Are those the original papers of the watch (behind the watch)?

My blue dialed Snowflake is back from the spa (i.e., my watchmaker removed the crappy relume on the dial at 5 o'clock --I honestly don't know how he did it, but the is back to its original condition--, change the crystal, and the crown of the watch).
