Going with the new arrival Steinhart Vintage Military which pushed just enough buttons for me to check it out...(on the stock bracelet today, but will no doubt end up on a Nato later this evening).

Thanks William...thankyou.gif ...alot to like with this one...you nailed it with the comment on the big lume indices which captures the "Maxi-Dial" that Rolex did on the vintage milsub's, in addition to the 60 minute bezel and sword hands.

Outstanding Chris! As we talked about, the 5517's have gone into the untouchable range and this piece is so spot on and the price point made it a must try watch! Congrats buddy! I might get to join you somdaymistake.gif

 Hey guys !

I am back from a very nice hiking tour. Great weather and great nature !
1142 meters the mountain was high.

And these two were allowed accompany me.

My TRIMIX GMT on ZULU


and the SUUNTO Core.

The SUUNTO Core is a very accurate ABC-Watch as seen at the following pictures.

Here are a few different heights measuring points.
