It'll have the Bund II dial and hands w/red tipped sweep, bead blasted case, AR sapphire xtal, diamond marker at the 12 elapsed time bezel insert, date at the 4:30 w/black wheel and white numbers and nato strap. I realize of course that the 12hr GMT is the more practical bezel, but was going for something with a bit more a traditional BP FF look. 24 week lead time right now, so I won't have it in my hot little hands anytime soon. I also had to agree to no more watches while on this deployment:(, boy is it gonna be a looonnngg wait till Oct. Oh yeah...just dummied up a preview.....SWEET!

Thanks Ian, Skip and Ken. It's great that you guys think it looks cool too. After all the talking about it, I realised that one is on 'The List', and I couldn't wait for Pax to give a review on his, especially after the box clicking to figure out which combo appealed to me the most. The only drawback is now I have to wait till I get home before buying another watch. That's ok though, because I'll be on the hunt for a grail when I do. Vintage Rolex/Tudor sub here I come:D.
