The lume throughout the night was excellent, just like the PAM01033 GMT. i simply look over and there she is still glowing and easy to read at 5am :)

That’s awesome Steven

Enjoy

You really need to see these in person to fully appreciate them, and the cool effect the domed crystal has with the dial and movement magnification. Very slick! Great lume of course, and she winds super silky-smooth.



Sorry my pics stink, yet if you're considering getting one i highly recommend it. She's a great desk or travel clock too

Am scratching my head a bit, as for only $3k you get the 8-day P.5000 movement, and then add in the two half-sphere crystals (those can't be cheap), and of course the casing, dial, etc. Seems like a bargain to me, and she really can make a great talking point as winst said.

My enabling Muse / wife was also curious when i mentioned getting one, yet when she saw it in person and held it in her hands she loved it too. It's waaaaaaay cool, especially the magnified movement side as you can see it in 3D as you rotate the sphere!
