        😘 😘 My 4 1/2 year old daily worn Marathon Chronograph Pilot Watch  😘 😘 (It's a beast!)

        I just bought a Feit handmade Bund Strap watchband for it (In naturale)


        From the site:
        The Bund Strap watchband was first used by WWII pilots because of its insulating properties. The leather band would ensure that the watch face would not freeze or burn a pilot’s wrist as they were exposed to extreme conditions.

              Yeah - that's a héll of a watch… How much did that set ya back, davito?..

              And I have a question... Link me to a cheap-arse (under 100 € if possible), good quality, sober styled watch with a metal bracelet (NO LEATHER BRACELETS)...

              Anything that looks like this (prefer a dark blue dial though), and doesn't cost 400 €...

                                            I know, I was making reference to Davito's IWC and obviously doing a poor job of it.  :-\ My bad.
