Nice looking thing, I personally think the one in PH classifieds is currently over priced.

The last one for sale on here was £595.

The minute hand ruins it for me; I am just not a fan of the "stuck on" style of hands that some watches have. I prefer hands to be "complete" rather than a stick with a shape attached to it.

Is it me or is the hour hand missing? Or, was the picture taken at 6:31?

Also the markers on the bezel are about 1/2 min out of alignment with the markers on the dial which makes reading the time accurately difficult. Don't like that.

Sub-dial to lower right. On a scale of 9 to 10, how daft do you feel now?

Could be a 120 click bezel. (Not sure, though.)

Personally, I think it is ghastly. Horrible looking - looks like it should be sitting in a plastic box by the checkout in a shop called 'Private Officers Club' with a sticker on the box saying" "WAS: £199 NOW: £13"

Blech.

That dial's a bit of a mess

I used to have one of these (along with the torch, map & spare strap kit), i thought the build and lume was excellent, but I just couldnt get used to the regulator dial. Mine had polished centre links. It is a 120 click bezel, and in that pic, its out of alignment.

anyway, i sold it on as mint....
