Selected this one today. Once again my photo does not do the Casio Illuminator justice, the watch face has a lovely deep blue hue to it with the same colour on the bezel. It should come with some kind of warning about how bright the Illuminator is (LED at the 12 and 6 posn) especially when you wake in the middle of the night in total bedroom darkness, trust me it is almost blinding :lol: :thumbup:

Yes, it is Elliot Brown's Canford 202-015 Clipper Round the World Race LE of 1,000 pieces.

That's a beautiful and elegant watch, asqwerth. Looks great on your wrist. :thumbup:
Thanks, welshlad.

It's a great watch. And the size is good for slightly more dressy work wear.

I believe it's what was considered mid-size or boy-size in the '60s (note my 1950s Bulova23 men's watches are only 31-32mm), as the size of a "real" ladies' Seamaster in the 1960s was 20mm, which is much too tiny for easy reading, and which IMO was disproportional as the crown looked giant relative to the case. See pic below. The date window is also pushed all the way to the edge. Not nice at all.

I think my mid-size Seamaster is relatively rare compared to the usual 34mm men's models.
