I finally got a moment to take some quick shots of my two awesome Christmas watches. I guess this was my flieger Christmas.;)

In what is becoming a Holiday tradition for me, I purchased a Dievas watch from 3T's good friend Anders. This year I am lucky to have received Flieger Timer #11 from Anders. This is just a phenomenal looking flieger with a striking dial and ultra perfect case. To make it just to perfect, the Flieger Timer is equipped with a vintage ETA 2452 which run at a leisurely 18,000 bps making the second hand a wonder to behold. Fantastic AR inside the crystal. some have pshawed the bezel... personally I like it. Just a great watch which I am happy to have added to my collection. comes on a super soft handmade leather strap which is numbered to match the watch case. This was removed after a wrist shot and traded for a color matched Dievas strap. I'll be swapping straps on this one for different looks.

Also arriving this Christmas was a second flieger, this time from 3T's friends at DeBaufre. This was a special hoiday purchase on the Nav-B Uhr II 3125. DeBaufre served up a spectacular deal on this 2824 equipped flieger. A beautiful sterile flieger dials calls to mind many classic pilots watches. A 44mm case, domed crystal and unique mushroom crown all combine to give the watch a timeless look imho. The watch is mounted on a high quality DeBaufre strap which looks and feels great.

Thanks for taking a look and here's hoping you're having a great Holiday season!yourock.gif

Mark big CongratsThumbsUp02.gif excellent selection, My advice to others is get your Dievas while you can, because Anders is in for the long run. I will buy from him again perfect.gif I want more mechanical vintage from him. Anders if you're reading this keep up the good work. I'm waiting for the "Blue Diamond Destro (enamel navy blue all black diamond) hint!!!toon1.gif My strap size is 140mm x 90mm without the buckle.thankyou.gif
