I always admire this watch, it's a departure from the normal fayre. That dial really pops...and I do love a PR indicator. Very legible and from a brand you don't see on too many wrists.

When I first asked my wife what type of watch she would like me to build for her, she requested an all black, smaller (Explorer sized) case since she didn't have a black PVD/DLC case watch. Because I couldn't find such a case, I ended up building the pink dialed Explorer style watch instead. But about a month ago, I did finally find a 37mm black PVD Explorer case....so...just in time for Mother's Day:
