    I am disqualified to answer your question;-)

    Bezel difference - correct. There is however another difference - can anyone tell?

    Blue hands on the inner sub-dials. The watch is my prize, correct mark?

    Thanks for the compliments guys. The blue hue is indeed without equal. I read in Hodinkee that a special dye/material is used to make this radiant blue which is why this is a limited production watch. Not sure how true it is.

    Here's another pic! Happy Easter!

    Correct Gents,

    The power reserve hand on the IW5021-21 is blue, so when one looks down at the watch and it's fully wound you don't see any indication (at a quick glance)- as the power indication hand is up against the blue sundial and being blue in color it's then hard to see.

    However, if the watch is partially wound it's easy to see at a glance exactly how much the power reserve is.
