Guess what I am working on today....?

Working on a GMT II C BLNR and Explorer II 216570 comparison, and a review of the new Everest straps on one of these watches.

Will have them posted in a few weeks.

Not "toys" but "tools" (or at least that is what I tell my wife.) The 116710 GMT BLNR is on loan for the Everest review. Nonetheless, I wish I owned that watch as well.

It's a Bergeon 6825. Definitely worth the money. I have a little description of its use at http://www.minus4plus6.com/maintenance.htm#removal
