Big Red - It's David's fault

Yep, I know the 'blame game' thread is long gone - but I can whole heartedly blame our very own Mr Devos for his 'red wristshots' over the years, which made me buy this one, which is a wonderful addition to the collection.
I'd like to thank Rob at Nakai watches for selling this to me - and this is also fitted with one of his Sapphire crystals, a perfect fit once again.

They are available here: http://www.nakaiwatch.com/parts/crystals/crystals.htm
I can't recommend them enough, they are just perfect. Like my Blue Silverstone, I've opted to go for an aftermarket bracelet, I think it suits the watch perfectly, and the solid links balance the head nicely. You certainly know you're wearing it, but it isn't top heavy at all. (It's a Hadley Roma 22mm).
Also, a big thanks to James for fitting the crystal. (again)

As usual, more pics available at: http://heuerville.wordpress.com/2012/02/12/silverstone-bordeaux-110-313r/

Cheers
Stewart
