Saw a couple of Zenith pilots at -40% in MUC last week, but I think they were larger cases and possibly chronographs. I'll take a closer look next week.

Zenith pilots, nice as they are, are out of reach for me currently.
However, this is within reach.

Good man, although a matching strap might actually require eclipse glasses/welding goggles.

Yellow stitching on the strap sets it off well. Mind you it's Genuine Alligator at €280 extra

Re: The "what watch are you day dreaming about now" thread
That is fine then. I had visions of an a fluorescent yellow strap in the same hue as the markers. Would have put your Makaira strap to shame!Bahnstormer_vRS wrote:Yet to see it in the metal but very much thinking along the lines that the yellow gives it a look similar to my C11 Makaira Elite that I very much liked.smegwina wrote:Ha!

Agree totally about the yellow stitching. Works superbly.
Would P&C come to an agreement over the strap?

These are lovely, and a welcome and relatively rare size for the pilot style (which always seem to be too large), I'd probably go for the brown but the green also nice.

It's a shame the ETA 988.333 isn't thermocompensated.
Then it would be a real alternative to a Breitling.

I'm perfectly happy with it being a 'similar movement' to a Breitling; not a shame for me.Bahnstormer_vRS wrote:
