    Thank you Java. Amongst other things, I find these designs to be clever and refreshing.
    To my eyes they give off a creative energy, a spirit of individualism which I can imagine to be strangely emboldening in an entrepreneurial sense.
    My eyes have been opened and today at least, my watchbox looks somehow conventional.

    If you have an Ipad, I find it useful to use an eye-fi card in they camera, means you can look at them on your Ipad as you take them. Much easier to see how good the shot is than on the camera and also means you don't need to touch the camera between shots which is useful if you are shooting macro.

    Must make putting a NATO on a bit tricky.

    ...and having searched through the watch box I found a pair of Breitlings are all I can contribute for now. I am desperately waiting for the 'prial' thread....then I can play some more!!

    That's an advantage I hadn't thought of.

    Can't argue with that . Significant contribution I would say. Better have another look to see if there were actually any watches there.

    A pair of 1960's Enicar Sherpa's. Both EPSA cased, Swiss Brevet 314962 Super Compressors. These cases worked on the
    principle ' The higher the water pressure - the tighter the seal '.

    This wasn't intentional - the black dial arrived in May and took six months determined fettling by Andy Leftley to sort out; the latter popped up in the meanwhile..
    sometime later, a brace of late 1960s K88x calibre'd Mariners ... (which as noted by earlier posts, is the same base that crops up in the Geomatic):



    oddly, the sunburst wears much bigger than the black..

    Thanks Mads. The one on the right is a bit special (I part ex'd your old Chronoswiss against it) it is forged carbon, 50% lighter than titanium and harder than steel!
