Grey Ghost

I love the monochromatic scheme of this vintage Date + Day and G 10 Nato. Although, as any silver dialed owner knows, it's color changes with the light.

That looks great Dan. I'm missing mine tremendously. Keep posting your beauty so I'll have something to look at.

Thanks, Buz. You'll love the DD because it's dressy and sporty all at once.
I talked to my watchmaker today and he said he hasn't even gotten to my snowflake yet. But did promice to have it done by my deadline.

Excellent pics, Dan. Only you and Jocke can somehow make a NATO still look presentable - mind you, I said presentable - not beautiful!!

That's very generous of you, JJ. I know you were grinding your teeth when you wrote that.

Looks great Dan! I put my 1680 on a black strap and my wife hated it! She thought it looked hideous! Oh well, at least she noticed!

Really? My wife saw this combo last night for the first time and LOVED it! Well, they are easy to change. Maybe your wife would like a Bond Nato better?

Thanks Jarrett, Tudors are just like M&M's. More is better.
