    I've got a couple "dibs" out there, but I'm the impatient type. I haven't been able to get this wonderful ugly duckling out of my mind, and it didn't help when a colleague surprised me the other day with an absolutely pristine example he picked up recently, further fueling my desire. I'm looking for one in good working condition, doesn't have to be collector grade, but don't want it knackered either. B&P a bonus but not required.

    Quite right @Jwit, quite right
    Ebay score, BIN was a little higher than I was looking for, but it looked pretty good overall and I decided I had waited long enough. I'm very happy with it.

    I bought one of these and few months ago but won't be home to try it out until July. How does it wear on the wrist?
