At the risk of hyperbole, this is sooooooo drip, it should be called "Lord Drippingham the Third". (That means it's cool).

This is what Graham refers to as the:

CHRONOFIGHTER GRAND VINTAGE SWISS EDITION ALPENROSE

It doesn't exactly roll of the tongue, but this is a watch that can rise above its name ; )

Limited to 50 pieces, and granted it might not be in your wheelhouse, but I'm kinda' crushing on it.
