INCOMING! -quite scary

Boo! Here is the new to me 26470io aka the "Ghost"

Once I saw the ever eluding ghost and it’s various shades of grey, I knew I needed one. It is quite special IRL and hard to capture the differing grey hues in pictures. A few things that I really enjoy about this piece are the circular magnified sunken date, the luminous numbers on the dial, the ceramic bezel (where I don’t have to worry about dents and scratches), the lightweight titanium case and the amazing legibility.

This piece is still quite new to me and call me biased, but I think a 42mm ROO can be a nice compliment to any collection.

Who else has a ghost?

Looks great on you. Don't have one, but if you don't know I'm the guy who nickname it Ghost here on TRF and it's funny to see after so many years that the nickname is widely used.

Thanks! Well, you certainly gave this watch a great nickname that stuck!

Love it! I am still holding out hope we get a reboot in the new 43mm style/format. Personally, I am hoping they just do indicies and not Arabic numbers.

Congrats!! It's an understated yet beautiful piece. I put my on a white rubber last summer and love the combo. Enjoy
