: Been trying to find this one for a long, long
: time.
: Had a couple of near misses.
: But the waiting definitely makes it more sweet.
: Jeff, if you want to use the photos I would be
: delighted to take and send more.

: This watch was described as ex-Israel Defence
: Forces, and has a M-number serial on the
: back. Seller was in Israel. I can't really
: confirm or deny whether it really is ex-IDF,
: but if anyone has any info, I'd be
: interested to hear.

: In any case, it's a great watch and I really
: love wearing it. Just need another few years
: to find a bracelet.... might be even harder
: to find.

: The effect of the different greens of the PVD,
: dial and bezel looks really cool and is very
: harder to capture in a photo. Tried to
: capture it here (any pretty much failed):

Nice ! It very well could be.
I do know for sure that if you take the movement out of the case and clean the inside of the crystal you will be amazed.

Opps.. The 2nd photo just came up and I see it looks clean. In the 1st photo it looked like it had the oil film on the inside side of the crystal. It is very common with watches.
Very nice find
Take Care
