67 AK 5500, just like the simplicity of the dial & being a birth year had to have it.Another from 1957 with patina and a roulette. What's not to like, my favourite!

Chaps

If you think about size you are simply a fashion victim and that is a self admission of defeat.

Wear what you want and what you like, be it large or small.

Still my favorite shot of that watch. Yes, the sub dial hands are painted on.

Hell of an impulse buy right there!

Love those textured dials.

Imagine if the GMTs and subs still had dials like this. We can dream

Where did you find that 19mm strap, if I may ask?

It was on ebay years ago. Finding a 19mm band is tuff.

I'll say! The grey band above is 20 mm, but pretty pliable. Looking closely, you can see that it is scrunched. Otherwise, it works fine.
