I had been in love with Mayu (sounds like a Japanese woman's first name ) but couldn't decide until recently when I found out my favorite watchmaker does service Moser, too. I love this model with this particular dial, and here are some preliminary shots ...
Must check this out at the local AD. I have a soft spot for the Mayu Btw, is that in white gold or platinium ? This message has been edited by flamenco on 2009-11-02 23:20:29
Mayu has something to touch your soft spot. This is WG model. If it were Platinum, that would be even better, but WG/Enamel LE is still tremendous value (versus the design, finish, and joy to have).
When worn, it is about plus 0.5 sec or less a day. When sit on the box with dial up, about 3 sec fast a day. This is just a preliminary report, but it is good enough to me.
It wouldn't be easy to distinguish between the regular lacquer dial and enamel one until you see the wall of the hall in which the hour/minute hands sink. With this enamel dial, the wall of the "hall" is white from top to bottom all the way the thickness ...
This is indeed a stunning watch. Can you post some more close up shot of the dial? I'm especially keen to see the finishing especially between the sunken second dial and the main dial.
but then I am biased - I have the white lacquer version. I have longed to see the enamel version and it does look really good. Enamel does vary so much in quality and it's good that you say this dial is well done. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Vernon.
The enamel dial is truly handsome. Enjoy it in the best of health. It's no secret that I agree with your taste. The Mayu has charmed me as well -- twice! (But I'd love an enamel, too.) Best, Jed...
I must say i prefer the Plat. The enamel option is a really nice alternative! And i prefer that to the fume. Do they do other options ... Blued, porcelain ... Lust wondering
May I ask what size is this beauty? Looking at the dial, I'm thinking it will be so outrageously beautiful if there's no arabic 12 and no logo as well......just plain enamel. yum yum. Congratulation Ken How do you compare this enamel dial to the Anniversa...
On catalog, Mayu case is 38.8mm (almost the same as Lange 1 and PLM size) while others including Perpetual 1 is 40.5mm which is beyond my comfort zone. Thickness is about on par, too. Actually, "12" reminds me of Lange 1815 (the CEO of Moser has last name...
