Thanks, I agree it's a beaut. I keep looking at it just to admire the silvery dial and hands.

Very nice Strela ^^^^^


Had a tennis match this morning, then jobs around the house this arvo, so had this beater on, a Lacoste GMT

A beater on for me today as well. Not tennis unfortunately, rather gardening.

Monkey - that lacoste looks nice a comfortable!

Cheers I only found it yesterday while having a rummage in a drawer!! lol

I bought it several years ago, before 'I knew' about watches, as I liked the look of it, and still do now I've got it on

It's actually a good size on my wrist, so will probably wear it a little more now

Always a nice surprise to find something you had forgotten about, esp if it comes in handy! Will it now go into a display case

Probably a daft question, but what is the scale on the chapter ring?

0 to 100 so you can measure seconds or hours in modern decimal rather than base 60 from thousands of year BC developed by the Sumerians and progressed by the Babylonians.

One explanation is that Tenths and Hundredths of one hour rather than minutes = aviation standard for time notation and communication.

Like most things on watches.
