This was available on various sales corners for quite some time and nobody " bit the bait ".
I was eyeballin' and eyeballin' and suddenly the seller dropped the price with another $100.-.
Then I " bit the bait ".
It was a great deal and eventhough my package was picked out by Dutch customs and charged me an extra $150.- on import duties and VAT taxes before they released it. Its worth every penny though, what a great watch.

Only 1842 pcs made, 7753 Valjoux movement, genuine croc strap, awesome detailed dial work with amazing sunk in chrono's.

Time for some pics.

Hope you like.

That is very nice, it does seem a little busy but honestly you can keep taking macro shots of it all day if you want, I don't think I will get tired of looking at it!

Thanks for posting the macros.

I have looked at that watch several times. It's a very interesting design. IMHO, Hamilton watches are a very good value.

Thats a nice one, mate.

The Riva is designed in such a way that the face "stripes" reflect the beautiful teak panelling on the hull and deck of the famous Riva boats. So I get that the "decking" is part of the design - and I like it a lot!

Rock on, good sir - that is such a pretty Hammy!
