There may be some spring cleaning in store for me this afternoon

Not of the watchbox variety, of the garage and garden variety . . .

I have seen comments of these newly built SM300 being "without soul"...

I do not agree.



Strap choice is a modern copy of the trusted old Tropic. Wish they would make the curved end version but this will do for the time being.

I wish I had bought one of those during the sale offer. I love the look of those

Thanks in advance

This website explains all the different variants (if you speak German). The guy that maintains the site also tries to keep a record of the known existing serial numbers. Case model "A" is the earlier (and more rare) variant.

I haven't worn this one for a few months but as it had stopped on the 23rd, I thought it suitable to wear to my Dad's retirement party (only 4 days out)
