    Hi

    More like 45yrs+....:)

    It's cooler than a cool thing on Ice....meant to be my Summer party , Beach (obviously no Sea) & BBQ ' beater '....with a bit of TLC from STS to ensure the full wolf in sheep's clothing look (& time keeping).

    Indeed it is.

    Looks nice. I prefer an interesting MkII dial to a modern service dial - if that is the choice.

    Nice looking watch, will perform as needed. I assume the cost is low - Apart from the STS TLC of course

    and

    Morning WW & SF

    Thanks for the comments....It's 29mill Cal. 861 145.022-69 fitted with a lovely lovely deep chocolate/Tropical MKII for a bit of ' fun ' for the summer.

    I still have the original T-Swiss standard dial and so I can have it swapped back to being a regular premoon example when required. The Watch came as a non-runner with a broken mainspring and I had the 'ghost' bezel fitted along with the 1039/516.

    I'll post some more pictures when it (hopefully/should) passes Test tomorrow....I know it's not everyone's cup of tea , however I thought you guys would like to see it....and I knew SF would appreciate the quality of the dial :)

    Best - Neil

    Very nice...I actually like it. The Mark II dial just threw me off at first.

    The only thing I don't like it's the bracelet. The rest is cool
