Neo, I know that you been dreaming secretly about the yellow dial... This is what happen when you think that the green was the best back in time...
The dial is never greener on the other side amigo: It's yellow!

Jeff, this is what I wondered about sometimes: If the dial was black and showing lighter with the light effect.
Anthracite is even better, really cool stuff with the grey markers: Must look great in real under a sunny sky
What's the movement type/origin there?

Thanks, Sheriff. The anthracite dial, I am sure you know, is from volcanic shale, harvested and powdered and then formed by OP through a stamping process. This is not a similar process to the ceramic powder stamping process that they use on the Black Seals, but somehow, same principles.
The dial is totally gray. Today it looks darker than usual because I shot this with the black side of my Lenovo laptop as a black reflector (on my left hand ) and then shooting the watch one-handed with my right hand. On other days with bright sun when I can't use a black material to "deaden" the gray, the anthracite exudes a much, much lighter shade, a color change noticed previously by Chris a few days ago.
Movement? Good question. This is an OPVII, which I think is either a re-worked Lemania or an elaborated ETA 2824-2. This is one of the older movements before OP decided to wear the hat of a manufacture via the launch of the P.9000 entry level in-house. Accuracy? it's ok. COSC and gives me about +/- 4 to 6 seconds a days...if ever I track it. I think I am losing 1hz lately.
Thanks for the compliments, Sheriff

You're welcome, Trent. That Zulu is a perfect strap for the Magellan. I saw William's post of Zulus and a leather strap on his own Magellan and IMHO, the BOR bracelet on this one takes the backseat.

Thanks Guys for the comments, the bracelet did not work for me but it is well made and the clasp is killer! Mine has the two tone finish and it is well finished. I am still not sure i am a carbon fiber guy but we will see.

I thought yours was all Brushed SS from the pix. Thanks for clarifying.
Looks good on the Zulu! But I cant wait to see it on the bracelet especially as I got mine all brushed and can't wait to see it. Like you not sure I'm a CF guy but am excited about this one. Hope it's a keeper ;) your pic looks great!
Mine is out for delivery according to UPS:)

 \WO the best looking one i've seen posted thus far!
The CF dial works best sinced there is really markings anywhere but the brand. CVF is just busy enough for me. And SS is definitely the way to go, the polished just too flashy for me. Never been a fan of polished though.
Looks great! Congrats! Hope mine is waiting for me at home!
