Hmmm, yes, i don’t really glance at the time I get caught up staring! It’s quite amazing how sensitive our eyes and brain are to the differences. And the weird thing is that - to my brain- this super smooth sweep makes it seem like time is going more slowly! Maybe increasing the ‘judder’ gives it a more stressed feel that we associate with time racing? It’s definitely relaxing watching this one...

Did I overthink that one enough for you?? :lol: :oops:

Very nice one! “Molten butterscotch” is a great description of the dial.

Beautiful Lindsey. I went to have a look at the red dial and black dial on bracelet in the AD. But then discovered this online; however it is not available in the UK. I had to have it and so I imported it from a jewellers in Italy. Love it!!

I love the two Jetstar that on the forum, both gold and silver. Such a striking design. I even love the name for god's sake - Jetstar - It sounds like a Marvel DC character or something. :lol:

My 'dogbone' Escort Mexico in 1974. I think I had an LED watch from Dixon's to go with that . . . Still drive a Ford, very tempted to buy the Bulova Jetstar to go with it!
