Wanted to try the case style so here we go. Asian Unitas clone. Pretty nice dial but poor lume. OldeCrow... help me. toon1.gif Strap is hideous but I've got something coming in to remedy that situation.

Q&Ds: (check out the surgical site marker I was testing...subtlelaugh.gif)

I've been eyeballing a few of those Homage watches lately too. Nice pickup. Looks like your fishing went well. ;)

Looks nice Pax! Straps are easy (should be!) to replace. I too have been looking. What does the "yes" decal on your hand mean?

Its a surgical site marker I was testing at work. Place it on the proper site for the surgeon so he doesn't drill a hole in the wrong side of your skull!! coyote2.gif

I like those cases very much, even though they are basic watches they keep on ticking and taking a beating.

Yours looks very clean looking.

Cheers

I look at those from time to time, so am interested how it works out for you. Looks pretty good from the pics.

Didn't you go for the Auto Power Reserve version? Thought I saw that pic somewhere. It was a race... I guess I grabbed mine a day or two before you. Can't wait to see yours too! Thumbsup3.gif

I actualy got outbid on the power reserve, really liked the look of it.   was outbid on the 6497 too but got a second chance offer and nabbed it.

 After taking a closer look at the movement on the power reserve im glad i got the hand winder.
