For what has to be regarded as complete failure of the paint for its intended purpose, I have to agree - it looks great! Always have liked it since you first showed us your "paintless wonder" Jeff. If it affected the white printing, I doubt I'd like it but the way it leaves that intact and affects only the metallic blue is fascinating.

Don't know of any other Heuer dial as prone to paint failure. The blue Daytona is probably next up, and that produces an attractive effect (to me anyway) too. All those years of trying to get the paint just so were wasted, we like it when it goes wrong!!
