ALS Datograph Perpetual Tourbillon, AP RO Jumbo with salmon dial and Chopard L.U.C. 1860 The Rake & Revolution LE are the watches that made me really appreciate this color combination and wish for something in steel at around 10k mark.
Therefore I imagined salmon dial variations of two watches that were on my short list:
1. GO PanoMaticLunar
2. GP Laureato 38mm
Guess what? The GO just became reality, but as a 50 pcs LE!!!
Such a bitter sweet release!
I can only lie to myself that I don't like it 100% because I wanted the hands and indexes to be in silver instead of blue.
Maybe they can also make the date window more pedestrian (black on white) and release it as regular production model later on.
GO produce their own dials and they already have 3 dial color variations, so why not make the salmon regular?
Still hope!
Or, even better, GP could make a salmon dial Laureato.

What do you think about this color combination in general?
What do you think about this new GO release?

The ones I've mentioned.

Need to see the GO in real life. I had the blue dial GO PanoLunar and I think I prefer that combination over the new salmon dial. The blue or silver PanoLunar are great all-round watches whereas the new salmon dial makes it a dressy watch.

The Chopard example was a great watch. I wish Chopard makes another salmon dial watch.

I had a salmon dialed DJ for about 10 years.

It was great.

Apparently a few pieces were made...

They sort of already did. From what I can work out, it is a limited edition of 15 pieces commissioned through the AD Alfardan Jewellery in Qatar.

That GO is really something else. I don’t have access to a boutique. If I did, I would buy one tomorrow.

The AP is smashing in that dial color!

BigAppleBill · 22 October 2019, 08:20 AM

This Ophion is pretty good too. Still taking orders.

GoingPlaces · 22 October 2019, 08:22 AM

Love salmon dials, especially on that Dato!

Montblanc heritage is a great low cost 2k piece

BigAppleBill · 22 October 2019, 11:47 AM

5270P. Nuff said.

Justindo · 22 October 2019, 02:55 PM

The 5270P would be my favorite salmon dial watch but the Montblanc Heritage for 1% of the price looks pretty good too.

Token74 · 22 October 2019, 05:59 PM

The 5270P is my grail. Need to find a way to make it happen!!
