Very nice ! Congrats !

Those chocolate sub dials are looking stunning and it's always a pleasure to see an all-original and coherent Flighty. 馃憤

Beautiful trio you have there @Duracuir1! Does the Flightmaster feel as heavy as it looks?
Wears very well. Does not feel heavy at all. But I only had it for 2 days before it went to the watchmaker for service. Will update you when it returns.

Wow that thing is huge! As a kid in New Brunswick (Canada) we lived only a few miles from the border with Maine. Loring Air Force base was nearby. Huge planes flew above constantly. They had 4 engines under each wing (if I recall). We called them B-52s. (??). But your C17 looks even bigger.

Might as well add some watch pics while I am at it. Thanks everyone for your comments.


Yes, the B-52 has eight engines, two pairs under each wing. The pairs are close together. If you see them from a distance it might look like only two engines under each wing.

Back from the watchmaker. Quickest service ever for me!

I will not ID the watchmaker because he is not looking for extra work and I don鈥檛 want him to start slinging arrows in my direction.

He agreed to service it sooner than later out of what I would describe as a genuine sense of duty. The dial was at risk of being damaged by a goop that had formed on the edge of the inner bezel (I am not a watchmaker so these are my words).

Anyway. I am extremely pleased to have it back so soon. It鈥檚 not coming off except for showers, sleep and workouts.
