Pink Kitty was a market leading design and would have flown off the shelves in record time :D

Very nice. I must say that the Mk II Speedmaster is probably my favourite of the Speedmaster designs. I expect to be arrested and burnt at the stake as a heretic for saying that...

A real rarity for today. An Orion Calamity Drab. Not a perfect watch but an unusual design that has good WR and a thin case.

Thanks :) I could say that no, it’s not heretical, but then I may end up tied up at the neighbouring stake... :shock:

There’s a lot to like about the MkII (and the MkIV & 4.5).

Is that one from HKED? I wanted a Sea-Gull but wanted something a little different and a little more retro looking and picked up that exact watch. Bought mine with the red chrono seconds hand. Liked the way it stood out from the dial a little better. I really love the look of the watch. Put it on leather rally strap. Really love this chrono. I would have liked to see 20 mil lugs but still pulled the trigger.

I've not seen this before, and I like it a lot. Clean, uncluttered, great lume, and nice deep crown guards.
Nice knurling on the crown. Wow! A screw down crown as well I expect? :clap: :thumbup:
What does it use for a movement?
Time and money? I’ve spent most of mine on booze and women. The rest I just wasted…

New in is this Zelos Swordfish V2 with a helical blue dial...

It’s nowhere near as large as the close up shots make it look.
