    Sitting here in the US Airways Lounge in Tampa, FL waiting for my flight - I was shocked to see this dial glowing at me in a way I had never seen in the 7 years I have been wearing it. I never seen the silver guilloche dial do this with reflected light. The dial has many depths and angle and hidden aspects to enjoy.

    Great photos Richard. I think it will take a few years before the Da Vinci is truly appreciated.

    Very interesting picture. It is amazing how we sometimes discovering an already longtime worn timepiece from a new perspective.

    Cheers Chris

    stunning!

    one of my favourite parts of the da vinci is the guilloche...

    taken from Leonardo Da Vinci's "Study of a clock striking mechanism".

    It's a fantastic Pic of a great Da Vinci. I'm so happy I got one, even it's (only) the steal version.

    Thanks for sharing. Kind regards, Daniel

    Beautiful photos, Richard! I love my CFDV (my only DaVinci) and have never regretted the purchase. I agree...the dial is amazing!

    Couldn't agree more. I wish they were more appreciated today. I seriously hope the revamp keeps the tonneau shape. It is the jewel in the Da Vinci crown.

    Jarrod, I doubt IWC will keep the Tonneau. I appreciate it too but I think it sells really weak. So they'll have to drop and redo.

    Unfortunately Tilo, I think you are right. If that does happen it's ok. There are still plenty out there for me to add to the collection over the next few years. I really hope it doesn't though.

    Cheers,

    Jarrod
