All wound up

Details, or the lack of attention to them can have a big impact on how you view your watch.  Yes, it is more than just the sum of all its parts, but yet and still - details matter.

Yes, I know, I have waxed on and on about the merits of the various rotors that have accompanied some of my prior horological companions.  And this one is another shining example of finish and quality.  What I particularly like is the use of color and texture on the rotor wheel.  Yes, it is black - which is undeniably cool - but it is not "carelessly" so.  By this, I mean that it is balanced and the white GRAHAM really pops - while at the same time really belongs as part of the whole.  Moreover (and apologies that my poor photography could not capture this) there is beautiful finishing work at the bottom of the rotor in the "GRAHAM" pattern.

The case itself is clean, defined, and smooth.  Only a few more days until goodbye...I will try to make them last.
