Ha, as soon as I posted that, I went straight to Wikipedia. Pardon my ignorance for ignoring our good friend Google. I'll go flog myself now.

Oh wait, that's a whole different thread. :shock: :lol:

All the occupants of the island parochial houses will wear them, as will the inhabitants of Craggy Island, including Mrs Doyle...Ah c'mon Father, she will, she will, just a small one.

Wasn't Welshlad looking for a white faced chrono recently...What more could he ask for? Understated elegance, oozing quality, beautifully finished dial and a steal at under 170 euro.
