I was loving orange and blue.......
Until silver dropped through the door a short time ago and absolutely transformed it :shock:

Several pints of best bitter owed...!

That looks top notch, Paul. :clap: :clap:

Totally transforms the look, as you say, and from my experience will make wearing The Beast a more comfortable feeling. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Day two with the new C8 Power Reserve. Popped it onto the brown canvas webbing strap now. For a big watch it doesn't feel big on my wrist at all :D

Love having that power reserve complication and it's used exactly one day as per spec :thumbup:

Persuaded by various inmates (you know who you are) I too indulged in a UV torch - a 2.2" head to cover the whole dial in one fell swoop, hours of good clean fun :lol:

Is there a particular way to search for this on ebay for example? I'm getting no hits (I'm in the US).

The vintage lume on the hour markers dies off pretty quickly.

FUN FACT: UV light also illuminates cat pee...excuse me while I go deep clean every rug in my house!
