New Arrival

Post by rcherryuk »

My wife and I net up with Helix Von Smelix today and dropped in to slow down a hugely busy Wera.

Gary was there to pick up his re-regulated Regulator and his FLE, and I picked up my, well, can you guess from this detail what I bought?

Easy eh? PS, the dial is dust free, unlike my iPhone lens thingy :D

It's my FLE, and it is worth the wait, it's got that classic retro look, but is still clean and modern.

Agreed, but is a fingerprint magnet, spent lunchtime with Gary, and my wife commented that we both kept wiping off marks from our watches.

Thanks, but for now it's staying on the gorgeous dark brown alligator strap from CWL.

It certainly was, it's dangerous going with Gary, he's the pusher to Wera's dealer :shock:

Looks very nice on the blue, but a bit to gauche. :D

I admit I like the look very much. But to wear it out and about like that it is a little too limiting in the look.
The brown strap, or similar can't be worn in most situations. A matter of taste, I have had my cream C3 on that very strap a few times, and it will get you noticed. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thanks, it was a long wait, but certainly worth it in the end.
