Magnificent watch and super heirloom! A refinished or new bracelet with a few NATOs and you have a gem! Good luck!

I am so pleased you took the forum advice. It really turned out nice. Throw it on a NATO and you might fall in love and NEVER put it back on the bracelet.
I recommend the MARATAC NATOs. They are top-notch. Get a 20mm NATO for it http://www.countycomm.com/milnato.html

Clay,
I know this was a long time ago, but you mentioned that I had the wrong date wheel. What makes you say that? Thanks, Jason |

So the date wheel is white and should have a brushed metal look. There's nothing wrong with the date wheel, it's just not completely correct for a rail.

I agree with Jason here, but I personally find the Phoenix straps are superior! |
