Looks very nice. The Miyota 9015 is a good solid movement, and one that a lot of the smaller " boutique" watchmakers are going to since Swatch group has choked off the sale of ETA movements outside the group. Solid watch with QC and a warranty for the price of a rep!

I have a pradata as well. Great looking watch but its finish is meh at best. Pearl is currently MIA, the bezel is not properly aligned and the DLC coating has decided to part ways with the caseback (but you have a brushed finish so you're safe in that department). Also, if you have a DLC pradata: they forgot to coat the bracelet between the links. It's bare metal there.

What a bummer about the DLC! That sounds like something that would be done on a cheaper watch (like one of my DLC'd fossils).

 

I got the blasted finish, which hopefully looks good! I have read similar reviews that the blasted is a last step finish as well.
