TOOK A LEAP
Found this little gem on the F/S forum @ WUS. BNIB w/ all the accesories, C3 , no date version.. Dude pre-ordered it & while waiting for it's arrival purchased 2 more pieces @ an AD sooo. I got it for a steal too.

This is an amazingly built little piece @ this price point, nice tight 120 click bezel &, everything lines up perfectly, crown nice & smooth, the lume is retarded sick, glows like a Seiko & because I'm guessing here of the HEAVY domed ACRYLIC crystal the LUME looks 3D. All in all this IMO is a slam run outa the park homage..Kudos to Peter & his team I was more excited about this then my unboxing of both my Rolex's SOUNDS CRAZY but entirely true..

THAT is one hell of a homage to a classic...now this is how a true homage is paid...by making something that is actually high quality and desirable as a product...and what a lume and looks...very cool
