Star of a Constellation,
February 8, 2008 Z. Doru "zagado26" (Roumanie) - See all my reviews

One of the most beautiful watches I have, Swiss made, automatic, chronometer and maybe, the most important, versatile (could be wear both at the board meeting or with sport clothing).
The style and the sport line join together perfectly and the result is an ageless timepiece.
What do you could want more?
