Oris Carl Brashear LE Bronze
An impulse buy, saw it on Monday in a local AD and snapped it up. Ordered a couple of 20mm Zulu straps with brass hard wear only to discover that the lug width is 21mm on this one. Assumption is the mother of all f*** ups:witless:
Managed to squeeze a 22mm Di-Modell from my parts box between the lugs, there is always room for shrinkage with a leather strap. Loving it so far looking forward to some darker patina forming.

Delivery on bank-holiday Monday!
Look what showed up this morning from the good people at Iconic Watches?
For me, this is the perfect watch (116200). Perfect size, perfect weight, perfect dial, perfect bracelet. I'm a fan of the Rolex sports models like everyone else (I have a 16710 / Pepsi), but this is the one for me.
