Out exploring with my Christmas present
For Christmas Santa brought me a brand new Exp II (white dial) V series.
On new year's eve I took it exploring at Taronga Zoo in Sydney. Hope you enjoy watching the snaps as much I did taking them  PS. I will post more close up snaps of the wonder; my bulky 18-200mm Nikon lens isn't greatl for macro shots. |

Congats, Puffy.......what a beauty!! If it's the V-series, I'm pretty sure it will be equipped with the new 3186 calibre.
Just unscrew the crown, pull it out a notch (so the hour hand moves around the dial) and make ONE complete revolution of the crown. The hour hand should jump 8 hours.............which proves it's the 3186 calibre in there. The accuracy of this movement is simply mind-boggling!!!  Cheers - JJ
