Amazing to See 17 Freid Eggs . . .


wow . . . a stunning collection!!

amazing to see this gathering of fried eggs. we usually see them in boxes of 12 . . . to see 17 of them is amazing!!

maybe cal 15 was never used for the Navitimer as this watch was serious tool for the pilots. to allow only 30 minute timing for this important task might have seemed like a poor compromise. also, maybe they thought that the pilots could afford the best watches, so no need for the cheaper version.
