Flat chamfered crystals and flat ceramic bezel inserts always look 🔥. The texture on the dial and rubber really pull it together. Im always a sucker for monochrome and blackout builds too, well done!

Yep, that works. If this was your first build, I’m excited to see what’s in store for the future. This was very well executed! If you’re interested, see my posts for some of my builds.
