Got stopped by the postman as I was driving away from my house today- he flagged me down to avoid having to put a pick up card in my mail box (sometimes it's great to have a very unique looking car). The package he had for me contained my Raketa hand wind dress watch on bund style band. Everything about it is great- the band is comfortable, the watch is very pleasing to my eyes and its 2609HA movement works perfectly so far. The metallic fleck effect in the dial is hard to capture, but I've tried in these photos to convey it. This is the only watch I own using the unconventional "IV" instead of "IIII".
