As I mostly buy microbrands this actually happens a lot. My Vilhelm Prism is one.

Image

Starting to see it more now but my Raymond Weil Freelancer gmt Worldtimer is another

Image

And my Norqain Adventure Sport Chrono Day/Date

Image

I’ve seen others from this line but not this one.

Of course with all the watch content out there there’s almost certainly plenty on these pieces, I must have just missed it.

Whoa, all that lights up? Like Indiglo?

The one I specced, bought all the components, and assembled it all myself (not the movement, obviously). Unless someone else bought the same case, movement, dial, hands and strap it's a one of one.

This was a full-on Bangladeshi special I found on EBay and had to get repaired upon arrival. I rarely wear it but it’s undeniably cool. I do believe the red is an ‘aftermarket application’ as I’ve dug around trying to find other red dials like that and haven’t seen one.

Probably the most under appreciated watch I own and wear. Chopard Mille Miglia 2000 Monterey Historics. Titanium case and engraved display back.

I really like the Chopard watches and this Mille miglia is a very nice example. They don’t get much attention though on these boards! Thx for sharing yours!

..my watch that REALLY no one ever talks about and I do like a lot is this one: Quartz Gant, circa 2000:

Bulova Accuquartz. Only watch with a tuning fork AND a quartz regulator. Plus, check out the case. Big beefy lugs up at 12 for a wide bracelet, and sculpted lugs down at 6 for the thinner bracelet. Second hand sweeps smoothly, keeps really good time, and has a single diamond at the 9 under the tuning fork logo. Plus that dial with the slice at 9 of just a solid blue. I got it for a steal, and could flip it for a good profit (wasn't looking for it, just found it at an antique shop), but it's just funky and quirky enough that I almost have to keep it!

Pretty sure it's just lume I lain into the case. Zelos does thier logo in lume on the crowns, same principle.
