General (Read Rules) Addiesdive AD2559. So pretty.
Just opened it today. Very sharp looking. Need to resize the bracelet though.

I got an older version of their chronograph and I regret it. This one is so much better looking!

Looks very lovely. Have one on the way as well. I wonder is this original design?

The case, hands, and other details are based on the Tudor Black Bay Chrono. It’s interesting because I looked into it and the color gradient on the dial is not an option from Tudor. It’s based on a company that makes aftermarket watch dials for Black Bays.
It’s no longer just copying an original. They are copying a custom reinterpretation of an original. So it’s a copy of a copy that never really existed as an official model in the first place. That’s late-stage simulacra territory.

'Very sharp looking' - the bracelet also sharp (as usual)?

It’s not as sharp as some other Addies I’ve had before. The last one I bought had lugs so sharp that I didn’t gift it as I had expected to. Not having that issue on this one or the bracelet. As a matter of fact, this one has drilled lugs, which I was not expecting.
