Very, very elegant and at the right size at 40. This is just me but if only there were no open heart, I'd score this a 10/10. I'll research on this. Thanks for postingThumbsUp02.gif

That is a real departure for Doxa; so far as I know of the brand.

A very classy design- even if open hearts aren't my thing.

I like it and in fact was searching for it after I saw it posted a while back. It's a re imagining of an older model I believe. Regardless I like the classy look!ThumbsUp02.gif

I like it a lot.
Unfortunately, however,  the open heart feature has been abused by el cheapos posing to be tourby's, so in my book that inevitably has a negative influence on such designs.
