Thanks Darren.. was nice to re-visit your story again
In Response To: Re: Darrens cool chrono ()

That is lovely, and I'm drawn to them recently..
I seem to be casually hunting around for a classic chrono, something of age. I nearly went for a Carrera, but was concerned about the size. I posted up a 'alternatives to Carrerta' thread, and since the useful responses I've been looking at pieces outside of Heuer - Brietling, Zenith etc, and it's a bit of an eye opener, as I'm guilty of having Heuer tunnel vision. Ironically, I've been drawn towards your Flieger (is it a Flieger? not quite sure what defines one, flyback maybe??).

I do love the 'hunt', it is educational and interesting.

Cheers
Stewart
