New arrival, I really like it. Obviously I thought I would like it, or else it would have been stupid to buy it, but I found I liked it more than I expected once it arrived and was on the wrist.
Jeff, when you get thru item 3,482 on the to-do list, maybe we can have more of these 50's models in the gallery.
Anyone have a view whether the jeweller special markings ('Turler') reduce the value of the watch? Personally I dont mind it, though I don't like the jeweller name to close to the Heuer shield.
Here's another view, I know the strap is not correct for the period but it goes pretty nicely with the watch (strap is an ATG special).
Here a close up I tried with a new macro lens, just a cheapo peice of glass that goes on the front of the existing lens, but seems to work pretty well (warning, slightly big pic):
