Thanks, but i must admit that my language skills ate not up to it.

I kept an eye on “the bay” and chrono24 and this came up for auction and i was the only bidder!
Very happy so far.
I was originally looking for the non chrono as i didnt want to spend nearly a £k on the chrono for an occasional watch, but the non chrono are are now out of production (and one sold very recently on the bay for slightly more than they were new, i think) so i bought this instead for not much more.

I was always tempted by one of these as a budget bell and Ross option. They then seemed to vanish off the face of the planet for some reason.

It does seem like a big watch but pilots watches were designed to be that way.

Enjoy it.

I think they are better looking than the Bell & Ross tbh. The version I bought is still available new.
It is a big watch but does not look quite so big in the metal as in the photos I think.
