Trying to refocus my collection and this one just isn't getting the wrist time it once did so have made the decision to list to for sale. I purchased this flightmaster in January 2015 from a privateer collector/trader, as a bit of an impulse as I loved the quirky look of the flightmaster I still love its looks and it always gets admiring comments. I also loved that it had the yellow sweeping and sub hands rather than the more common red/orange ones. ++I have since been advised that these could perhaps more likely be oranges hands fading towards cream to look more yellow++ either way I find the overall appearance of the dial and hands attractive. This watch is sold watch and bracelet only, although there is a receipt for a service dated as Feb 2014 which will be included. This service also replaced the pushers. Condition is generally good with the usual patina to case and bracelet for a watch that is 40+ years old. Of course its not a mint collectors condition piece rather a good honest example. Case is a little soft from presumably from past polishing but I decided to not have this further polished/re-profiled and remove yet more material. There is also what can perhaps best be described as a 'scuff/flat spot' on the case near the 5 hour marker and this is shown on the pictures below. (It was caused by catching the case on my desk, as it sits quite high of the wrist) Although it's 4 years since service it's running well and keeping good time.

Apologies I wasn’t aware of that, not sure how I missed it. I will edit the post in the morning when I’m at a desktop and upload the pics onto the site. Thanks for the notice.
