"Some" Ming's? Where are the other photos Zach??? 😂
But yes, this one is quite compelling. I love Ming as a brand, but more for their unique case shape than their dials typically.
I like it!
This is the closest I would get to a skeleton, pretty tasty dial there…
Very cool dial
The Ming aesthetic has never really caught on with me. Blending the "Tron" dial architecture with case and lug design that leans into the classical (wannabe Corne de Vache lugs), I've always found them to be very confusing.
Having said this, the dial on that looks pretty cool. @zachweiss - hard to tell from the images, but do the pixels give the dial a 3D look/feel?
Ok
Most definitely, more like your suggestion! I guess for me, it's any stylisation of the lugs in this manner - it reminds me of designs of yesteryear (without necessarily being the same). My point is around the minimalist, futuristic dial coupled with this - it's never quite gelled, in my opinion. I know it's what makes a watch a Ming, but for me, it's a case (excuse the pun) of overdesigning.

Yeah. Many of their dials have layering effects that are best seen in person/motion
