As some of you know, we celebrated US Christmas with family and friends in our house yesterday as we’ll be departing for France Friday and spend the holidays there
... We’re due to return Jan 4th, so two Xmas for usJ (technically 3, as we’ll do it twice there)yahoo.gif Lucky us! Ahah! Anyway, I had a super super cool WIS present from my wonderful spouse and kids!;) They hooked me up with a beautiful white dial Hamilton Aviation Tachymiler (valjoux7750) on bracelet.yourock.gif
My sources tell me there may be more WIS gifts on the other side of the pond;) woohoo.gif
Obviously, I am a happy WIS!!! I could not size the bracelet with my tool so since I couldn’t wait any longer to wear (it did sit in our guest room closet for a couple of weeks, so I ID show some patience guys!!
), I removed one of my fave leather strap from a Pro Diver and put in on the tachymiler… I gotta say, it looks pretty good even though it probably derserves something a little nicerJ I do love the combo though, I cannot stop looking at itJ I must say the Hami bracelet/clasp it came on is really nice and top notch quality as far as bracelet comes… Super nice So I’ll get it sized or get a new tool and try it on. In the meantime, I took some quick pics after chuch on our front porch as I prefer outdoors lighting.I love the the case design, especially the side and lefty crown. I alos enjoy the contrast of the black belze. The two subdial and hands, 8 to 1 numerals make it distinctive enough, interesting to look at, and just enough red to make it pop without being tacky/overdone. It has some class to it. Finally the cool exhibition back lets you enjoy this smooth operator of a mvt! The watch wears fairly big but not too big for my girly 7” wrist on my 6’2” 230lbs frame!:) It wears very comfortable and is legible at all angles. Overall I just love it and wouldn’t change a thing! I ams super excited and very pleased.perfect.gif
Thanks for reading/lookingJ Happy Sunday all and God bless!
