It’s a limited edition European market only dawn grey series. Released late 2018 in the turtle case as Paul’s incoming and also in the samurai case that I chose below. I believe it sold out pretty quickly although it seems luckily for Paul there must still be the odd one knocking around.

Kev described it better then I could, but it is a limited release, I believe 2018 were created in 2018, and only released in Europe. It is called the Dawn Gray, and like Kev pointed out it came in the Turtle and the Samurai. They are hard to find, at least in the US. There are a couple on the internet, but a new one is somewhat rare. And I got one!!!!

See, now you're even more special, and that in itself is special.

It's like one big special moment we can all share.

Very nice Paul, congrats! If I remember correctly, you really liked this model when announced, only to be disappointed that it was a Euro-only model. Well done on finally scoring one! :-)

Very nice Paul I wish they would do a orange dial like this, pay no attention to the bracelet.
