They do tend to grow on you smile For me, the look, the size and the fit are all spot on!

I've fallen for these too, and that's after a spell buying/wearing Lum-Tec stuff... The M series is sort of similar...

This bargain Bulova Military precisionist is outstanding for the £129 it cost!

Ooof top man, even got a discount code off so it came in at 75 quid.

Virtual pint heading your way. I really like Bulova stuff since picking up a Lunar Pilot a few months ago.

Top man!

That's a real bargain. The one I got was retailed at £229 on a (horrible) leather strap. I paid £129 and thought that was good. £75 is a steal!

Incidentally the strap I have on it now is from eBay seller lawr389. Beautifully soft top quality leather and super comfortable and only £15 or so! Got his straps on 4 if my watches now.

Hopefully it'll go through OK as it was saying it was the last one in stock. I've just looked again and its now out of stock so hopefully there was one left and it's on its way to me.

I fancy a nice leather strap for this as the green NATO doesn't do much for me. I'll have a look at the eBay straps you've mentioned and get one ordered.

Should be fine. They're a good bunch in there. Had 3 watches from them now - That one, a Lunar Pilot and my Mühle Glasshütte 29er.

Keeping with the Bulova theme for this week...
Lunar Pilot on Pittards leather strap from eBay seller lawr389.

I keep mentioning his straps because they're such a bargain. Under £15, well made, super soft and supple. My only gripe is the spring bar holes are a little on the large side which can make it tricky to get the pins to locate.

If you don't see the colours you want ask him. He's doing one for me sometime soon.

Hey Clint...

Ward's are eeking some more from their Trdent chasis'

Really like that (on the non distressed brown leather strap), and I've been looking to get one at some point as I really like the seconds hand trident.

Bit of a shame it isn't their in house movement but that would've doubled the price I suppose. 43mm is pretty huge too scratchchin

I'm going to leave it a week or so, and if the want is still strong, I'll probably have to pre-order / buy.

This is easily the most costly thread on PH for me.

My business partner once touted an idea for a device that was effectively a breathalyser login for paypal.
Maybe with a bit of work it could be extended to ebay and various watch buying sites.
