And, oh, by the way....the TWINLOCK crown which comes with the GMT-II should, in reality, be called the TRIPLOCK crown 'cause it has 3 gaskets:
- one insde the crown - none on the outer stem - two on the inner stem of the crown JJ

I tried on a Tudor Chrono last week, a used one and it seemed really big too, very large case - I liked the watch but couldnt wear it, I think it would be uncomfortable too. I'd never get away with a Pano... |

I've seen a couple of ladies wearing an Old Navitimer, black face & white subdials with a black leather strap. Looked very good

Go on, say it....who'd look at a Navitimer on the wrist of a beautiful lady? On the other hand, if it were a Rolex....

yEH yikes. I fear the navitimer would give me a headache and probably make me run my car off the road everytime I looked at it - thats one mightly busy dial! I did find a pic of an older model yesterday that was far simpler, just had the 3 white subdials... very nice Breitling that was. I bet I managed to pick out the most expensive and desirable Navitimer when I liked that one.
I seem to have this habit of falling for the most expensive things.... |
