Congrats, Arnaud! The level of case back personalization is fantastic. Aphrodite, Hera, Demeter, Artemis, Athena - who did make a choice of these goddesses? And if it was you - why specifically them?

As for the tits, Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty and pleasure, so leave them alone

for the tits

Thanks. Yes I did choose them, because they remind me of my father who at night used to tell me the stories of Homere Illiad and Odyssey, when I was small, after read the books, loved those stories, the Trojan war, Ulysses' journey back, but didn't see myself with Achilles or Ulysses, or male Gods, kind of like the horological tradition of erotism on some watches so wanted women, Athena is very present in these books, the others a little less but I wanted a fresque with a few characters, the most important being Athena like you see on the engraving, I wanted her and to fill up for the others looked which ones I preferred and chose the 4 others

You can't go wrong with MILF tits and Kari's blue dials :)... congrats lapince... wear it in good health up and down...

Already seen this pattern on dial, and it is not symmetric... the middle represent the cube with larger pattern with smaller pattern squares around?

That's awesome. Much better pics of the engraving. I'm sure it's even remarkably better in person too.

Big congratulations I am very happy for you. You have something truly special and not many of us collectors can say that. Enjoy your amazing unique piece and wear it in good health.

PS I love that there are engraved boobies on the back

Well I am not a MILF fan, but like I said it's so small in real that I don't care, the ensemble looks awesome, that's what matters.
For the pattern it is a 3D pattern, not really squares, on top of the seconds sub dial you have a sort of big oval part with patterns inside, and on the sides it's a little different, some moments and angles it looks only blue, you don't see any pattern, at others it really gives it depth

Thanks, I did warn that the first ones were crappy, under airport lighting couldn't do better, a few of you were waiting for the incoming and knew it was on the 19th, so posted a few, even if not good ones, but today am seeing a TRFer, who is taking his camera, if they are better than the last ones I posted will post them

Funniest comment yet, thanks my friend, and will do, have guests coming on the 28th, for the celebration of my new flat, and new life as a free man, so yes I won't be in beast mode

No no, this thread is not going to go sideways like the first one, you guys got 4 pics with 7 girls on the other, this one is just for the watch, you maniac

Thanks a lot, and yes there is a special feeling about having a totally unique piece, that you designed yourself, it is very cool, love my other watches, but know there are thousands of PP like them, and hundreds of my AP, this one? No just one in the world, that is priceless

Seems not, and wouldn't get it if I was very wealthy, maybe some need guidance for what to do in a bed, I don't have any needs for directions in that matter ))))

Next to the CB yesterday with Archer, too bad he came too late, artificial light, pics would have been better with his camera, but my second set of pics seem better, even with iPhone

to be honest I didn't set it at the exact time, just set it on my iPhone time, but will set it now. The CB is lovely, thin, dial goes from blue to black, well at least in my living room, I proposed him a straight trade, he said no

Ps: yes it was slow, now it's at the right time, will post daily variations in accuracy

Oh it is a very very nice watch, if I didn't get the Kv and wanted a watch on leather it would probably be my choice, of course the KV is much more special, but the CB is a great watch, for the "cheapest" FPJ they made a great one, to be honest I peefer it much more to the SS 5167, but if to chosse between it and the RG5167, I choose the RG

Thank you my friend, hope mine is giving you ideas for 2019, kind of have the feeling that the movement will be ruthenium. And knowing you I know what complication it will be, Kari didn't say anything, but I told you 2 possibilities and you said "one is right", so I know what it will be. But won't tell I promise
