Hello all,

Many comments have been made about the CK2129 since it made a famous appearance in the film Dunkirk. I’d love to see some photos if anyone on the forum owns one of these magnificent watches and is inclined to share! I’m a history geek and my great grandfather served in the RAF during the Second World War so the history has a personal connection to me and my family. I have a CK2292 (which I love) but the 2129 is another sort of special. Thank you all for indulging me. All the best!

The numbers on the bezel look like they were drawn there by a Sharpie pen.

Do the British also call their Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm pilots " Aviators " ?
