it's my best watch in the collection. I only wear it on special occasions and nice dinners/brunch. The rest of time its SS models and speedy.

This is the perfect TT watch...a MASSIVE step-up from SS honesty. Feel more like a luxury watch than a "sports watch"

even though I usually dont like yellow gold two tone pieces I picked up mine last week and no regrets its a beauty and my favorite among the actual gmt line with its great wrist presence and everose / steel mix, must be seen in live as photos as its colors are changing based on light its difficult to catch it on camera.

I have some discolouration on the triangle part of the bezel. Watch was bought around 6 months ago, brought it back to AD but they say it can happen. Abit strange to me, but just checking here if that is the case or recommendations. Thanks.

It’s oil off your fingers....a greasy fingerprint basically.

Get a Q tip and dip it in acetone and wipe it over the effected area. Seriously, it’ll come up like new with no side effects.

Because of the wide indentation I agree about the body oils being trapped.

Mine has been discolored in the past.

Though I found washing it with Dove and making sure I pay attention to that area it is fine/clean.

Seen this before. All it needs is a good scrub. I’d suggest mild soap and infant toothbrush.
