Decided to grab my C7 Joint Force Harrier for this evening.

It was an hour fast and the date was several days behind. Must have been sometime in October when I last wore it. :oops:

It’s too infrequent - I don’t dress up enough these days... :grin:

I know I'll be burned at the stake for suggesting this possibly.....
But I think if the polished bezel was brushed, easy to do, it would make this a much more useable watch and could be worn anytime.
Worth a thought perhaps ?
It would look like this, I guess. This is the c10 prototype.

C1000 RAF Typhoon just swooped in....

I know the RAF roundel in the 6 o'clock sub dial and lack of a running seconds do not meet with universal approval but I like the idiosyncrasy of it, and OK the grey/yellow Cockpit version is nice but I've always admired this RAF version since it was originally released.

Looks very good. You now have the choice of a Typhoon, Harrier or even Concorde to wear....plus any other planes I've forgotten :lol:

Cheers Steve.

Did think about the GGB as I have one on my Bulova Lunar Pilot. Useful that Karl now does black fittings too. :wink:

Roll call is correct Patrick. :thumbup:

No others (as yet). :wink:

Think a group photo is called for sometime.

Thanks for that, I didn't know this prototype existed !
It looks to be a C10 FLE dial and hands in a standard bead blasted C10 case with the aviator style crown, unlike the brushed case and standard type crown of the C10 FLE.
