End Of Days

Ive always thought this model looked fantastic.

Any owners here or anyone spent considerable time with one? Any thoughts?

Im debating a bit between trying to find one or pulling the trigger on a Bumble Bee - I guess I've got something for yellow!

One of the coolest LE's imo. (After the Ti RB2 of course)

PVD is a coating, correct? meaning the coating can be more easily scratched and show wear more easily than, say, FC?

im assuming it would wear much heavier than BB

Yes the EOD is PVD and will wear of if your not careful with it.

There are quite a few on sale in Asia, they aren't selling at the elevated asking prices. Also the cost of the re-coating with AP is quite high I believe. This must put a few people off, particularly with the emergence of ceramic.

Hmmm... Wonder if we would see a remake of EOD in ceramic? EOD2 perhaps!

Quite a great idea. Still the PVD EOD is stunning on its own!

I wonder why they didn't make the EOD watch in Ceramic like the Legacy? Would've been a lot more durable then PVD'd SS.
