I am sure there are a number of them...but I haven't had much luck finding them...any ideas appreciated.  I REALLY like the 01-94 and 03-94 with blue markings...

You can find something similar at http://www.debaufre.com or even steinhart.

If you're working on a budget, check out the Parnis brand. They have good models at good prices.:)

Oh boy, there are lots in that ballpark.

Blue/black possibilities:

Seiko Trek
Nixon 51-30 or 42/20

 

Wenger Commando



Burberry Antarctic Chrono



 

Sottomarino





 

 

Instrument possibilities

Revue Thommen Airspeed



NFW Autopilot



Debaufre Aircraft-8



Invicta Corduba Instrumental



Whoo....ok I think I need to stop looking at watches so much.  Kind of embarrassed that I know all these...
