Introducing: The Seiko FUGAKU Limited Edition Tourbillon
In what was, in general, a somewhat subdued Baselworld, and one in which we saw more incremental improvements than spectacular debuts, there were still a few new product introductions that really stood out. One of the most memorable, and certainly one of the most unexpected, was from Seiko: the FUGAKU Tourbillon, a limited edition of eight pieces. This is nothing less than Seiko's very first in-house tourbillon (for that matter, Seiko's first tourbillon of any kind) and both the technical inventiveness of the FUGAKU, as well as its colorful interpretation of a famous work of art �C The Great Wave Off Kanagawa, by the Edo-period artist known as Hokusai �C caught many of us off guard, and challenged, once again, our notion of what to expect from Seiko. The FUGAKU Tourbillon is a combination of some very traditional watchmaking, seen through the filter of Seiko's idiosyncratic watchmaking philosophy, with some very traditional Japanese decorative arts techniques used to re-interpret

My perfect trio in picture
My collection, once I flip the ones I have now and get the 3 which will be for me the best trio possible, will look like this.1 week to wait for the Patek, 2 months for the Rolex, and within 4-6 months for the AP, I think that concerning my priorities; no straps just bracelets, SS no gold or platinum see through case back, ok not for the Hulk even though I can have one installed but won't because of water proof problems (living near beaches in Thailand makes it obvious that there will be a lot of swimming)images-7.jpegimages-8.jpegimages-9.jpegimages-10.jpegap15202jumbosihh2012-1.jpgAPROJumbo15202RJ.jpg

Dial Swap Question
I was looking at a pre-owned 16233 DJ 36mm at an AD. I really want to get a TT DJ 5 digit, but I specifically want it to have a white stick dial, and the one they had was a black stick.The AD has a watchmaker on staff, and suggested that could swap the black dial to a white dial for me if I wanted to purchase the watch. He said it would be swapped with an authentic Rolex dial.My question is, does that ruin the watch or otherwise put a stain on it's authenticity by not having the original dial? Also, if down the road I send it in to RSC for service, would they require to switch it back to the original black dial since it wouldn't be in the factory original configuration?
