                This one is the one I'm lusting after. Green's my favorite color, and there are only so many options in quality watches.

                    Hodinkee released a collaboration with Ressence earlier today. It's sold out, so if you want one (and can afford the $22,500 price tag), tough!

                    The watch is a skeletonised Type 1, with a steel case, rather than the standard titanium. This video shows how the time is displayed, which I love.

                    There are quite a few comments on the site that Hodinkee are selling out to the industry, but I suspect that they did so a long while back. Someone pointed out that the major watch blogs tend to carry minimal advertising, so someone is paying for the editorial team. So take what they post with a pinch of salt.

                      That is very cool.  If I had the cash to spare, I'd be willing to blow it on one of those.

                        How about something cheaper @Giles? 😛

                        Seiko Prospex Diver SLA017 reissue, which should retail for €3800. It's a limited edition, with a movement based off the Grand Seiko line, and possibly sold out already.

                        Details from Monochrome's review. Hodinkee have an announcement, which also includes the modern version of the watch.

                            Such a great watch.

                              ^ It's a great watch!

                              There's also the Kermit or 16610LV. It has a black dial with a non-ceramic green bezel. It is also very nice.

                              yeah. the ceremic is 116610LV. the additional 1 in front stands for ceremic. otherwise the single 1 is the kermit. the ceremic green bezel and dial is called the hulk whereas the green bezel and black dial is kermit.

                                  @QuantumMechanic nice collection there sir!

                                  I have had my eye on a panerai for quite sometime….the 1950 flyback models really peak my interest. However, it's a very hefty price tag.

                                  You won’t be satisfied until you wear Iron Heart.
