Read an artical that stated the military dial is quite rare , think I’ve unearthed a diamond . How many Do you think we’re made ? Definitely going to be a keeper my favourite watch that I’ve owned so far by a country mile . Seems to be going for a hefty price on chrono24 .

I think this dial design was not popular until recently. Not many were produced in my opinion compare to other RO Dial. I do agree that if you have right wrist size for this 36mm, you will love it!
