 Maybe a Boschett Cave Dweller...
depends on if I can find a really heavy SS bracelet for my Hamilton Khaki ETO.
(Its lug size is 21mm, sigh).

 A Debaufre Airforce Orange should be on my wrist in 2-4 weeks.  Debaufre tells me could be sooner if U.S. Customs doesn't cause a delay. hand6.gif
 

  Then I need either a Debaufre Nav B or a Steinhart Nav B chronograph with the Valjoux 7750 movement .

A great watch, if you can find one, is the "old" Steinhart Mach1 with the ETA 2824-2 movement and DD2020 chrono module....it was very reasoably priced:

 My next purchase will be on
Friday May 15. I'd already placed a "Hold"
for a 1923 Omega Pocket Watch with an interesting
piece of history. (See Below)

Movement is signed "Omega Watch Co. Swiss Made"
Serial Number 6492537
15 Jewels Adjusted in 2 (Two) Positions

White Porcelain Dial signed "OMEGA" with sunken sub-second display

Corresponding Movement Serial Number dates this watch to 1923

Case is marked inside "Alpha E in the maple leaf P.W.E. Co. Ltd. Cased in Canada 3028855."

About P.W.E Co. Ltd:                                                                                      
                                                    
P.W. Ellis & Co. Ltd                              
31-37 Wellington St. E                          
Toronto,Ontario Canada                          
 
P.W.Ellis & Company, which was founded in 1879 and existed until 1928, when it was sold to W.N.Stock - it was one of the most successful Toronto jewellery
and silver company, a partnership of twin brothers Philip W. and Mathew C.Ellis. Their mark was an E in the maple leaf, an anchor and a lion passant.
In 1904 Gorham sued P.W.Ellis because their trade mark was very similar to the one of the American firm. P.W. Ellis also manufactured many
flatware patterns strikingly similar to Gorham patterns. The case was heard in Toronto and P.W.Ellis & Co. won
                                                                                                                                                 
Various Ellis Watch Case Markings:

Regal
Sovereign
Banner
Alpha

Philip  W. Ellis later became the Toronto Transportation Commission Chairman from 1920 until the time of his death in 1929.

Prior to the establishment of the TTC, the City of Toronto operated their own system under the Toronto Civic Railways (TCR). However, the TCR routes were operating in areas not served by the private TRC. In 1920, a Provincial Act created the Toronto Transportation Commission (TTC) and, in 1921, the Commission took over and amalgamated nine existing fare systems within the city limits. Between 1921 and 1953, the TTC added 35 new routes in the city and extended 20 more. It also operated 23 suburban routes on a service-for-cost basis. It abandoned money-losing radial railway line (known as 'interurbans' elsewhere in the continent), North Yonge Railways.

Furthermore, I'll be picking up a 1902 Waltham
Pocketwatch on the same day.

Cheers,
Simon

 I'm currently looking at a Precista, as well as a Debaufre Ocean1 or GMT, and maybe an Archimede flieger.  There are some great watches in this thread.  - "Red"
