    Yema Superman French Air Force limited edition in stainless steel. It is a perfect fit with a 39mm diameter and 13mm thickness.

    Running like a champ, it has gained less than five seconds over the past four days with the Yema in-house MBP1000 movement (https://eu.yema.com/pages/yema-mbp1000).

    I am looking forward to getting the fully brushed bracelet sized by my watchmaker, but in the meantime, I am enjoying it on the included second strap - a nice, leather-backed canvas pilots strap.

    This is a definite keeper. As an extra bonus, these are a numbered LE, so I was also able to secure my son's birthdate for this example!

    New Dan Henry 1937. Often came close but this is my first from DH. Scratches that itch for a gilt chrono... at about 30x less than a quality vintage piece! F572D26B-ED1C-4614-BA1E-708AA8E2A3A6.jpeg

    Very nice, I see it’s not the bumper movement a watch I’m looking to get but most I see have the bumper.

    A relatively big & heavy Mathey-Tissot "Racing"-Chrono - with a nicely decorated Valjoux 234:

    I really don’t go for watches with sub-dials - generally too confused, complicated to read and clunky - but this one is very tempting.

    Check out the other three variants in this line. At $270, I viewed it as a no-brainer.

    In my defence M'Lud no one else wanted it and I thought it would make a nice (34mm) beater, ok! I confess I am weak ::facepalm2::

    Another recent addition as my collection is getting revamped. The blue one is getting all the hype these days but this BB58 black is where it’s at for me. I had one of the earlier heritage Black Bay releases and this one is so much more pleasing - Case proportions and of course the 1958 vibe. This one is staying around for a while! 30C1C912-BD7D-4917-B0B3-05D3138C3811.jpeg

    I absolutely love the way the black pops against the white everywhere

    Probably marked inside caseback if gold, or maybe easier to check reference number stats to see. It's nice either way!
