Rail in the sun

Another great day in London - the sun makes everything look so much better.

Time to give the old rail dial some wrist time. Loving everything about it!

Show your sun bathing vintage pieces...

Thanks for all your compliments guys - I have to say that insert does 'make' the watch

1665 and 1655 - Love them both.

I saw an amazing Tiffany Rail dial 1655 once, sadly it was already sold. However, I still have that great memory.
