Hello John,

: I don't know anything by way of having seen a few pictures of these
: myself but your watch dial certainly dos not look to me as
: though it faded to this color as the rest of it looks too good.

Yes, I think so, too. Most of the darker brown versions of the A384 show an uneven distribution of multiple color shades.

The sub-dials of my watch are totally even, no shadow:

: Anyway, it is a stunning piece. Thanks for the great pictures.

Thanks for your appreciation. Here is another one for you.

Cheers,

Mick
