    Stowa MO arrived, unfortunately because of a mistake on my part I got the wrong strap, it's on a cheap black leather one while the croco is sent back to Stowa for a swap

    Awesome Stowa box

    So nice in fact that it deserved it's own thread?;)

    Very nice watch, lovely clean lines.

    Not sure about the painted "blued" screws though

    They're not painted? At least Stowa calls them blued, I doubt they'd lie, especially as we know they do use blued steel on the hands

    Well, they're chemically etched or something, but not blued as in heat treated and then annealed to keep their colour.

    The blank slot is kind of a giveaway..

    They've done the same thing on My Roamer:

    Properly blued screws look like this, blue all over, even on the thread where you can't see
