      I thought I would try a Nato on my GMT, really pleased with the look and comfort.

        Very nice.

        I picked up a similar Nato from Crown and buckle. Really like the combo of the black/green/red. An awesome combo with the GMT I must say!

                    @Giles there's a new Blancpain No Radiation watch…

                    Anyone know by chance how quick this sold out?  Im gonna try and get their next vintage offering and want to gauge how quickly i gotta troll hodinkee. . .

                      I believe that the Blancpain Barakuda reissue sold out pretty quickly too. I'm not sure if it was hours, days, weeks, or even months. I'm not up on the brand.

                      Given I saw one both a Barakuda and a No Radiation on Chrono24 at nearly twice retail, I'd guess that they're a hot ticket. I'd be tempted to approach your local dealer now, and see if you can make an expression of interest in advance of the model being announced.

                          H. Moser just released a perpetual calendar version of their Streamliner. Interesting use of a tiny center hand to indicate the month, using the 12 hour markers as month markers.

                          https://www.h-moser.com/product/streamliner-perpetual-calendar/

                          Personally I like the green-faced centre second better. In fact, it's my favorite watch currently in production right now.

                              yeah.  Im back on the 45 mm offering.  It doesnt look too big in comparison to other watches and I've already tried it on and liked it.

                              My current dilemma is, do i get that, or do I leverage my uncles long standing relationship with a Rolex dealer and get on a list for a Pepsi. . .

                                  the sapphire face/bezel is quite literally one of the most beautiful things ive ever seen.

                                          Completely agree about the date location.  I would rather have a no date than at the 4 position.

                                            I love any FF (particularly the non-Bathyscaphe ones), but personally give the edge to the mainstream one.

                                            I love those luminous numerals and thankfully since they made the field dark on the date wheel I find the asymmetry (which you get in some form either way unless you get the big date version, which is also very attractive) unobtrusive until you are looking for it. Were it on a white field I think it would bother me.

                                            Think it, be it.
