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

Re: New Arrival
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.ept55 wrote:

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.

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