I'll bet this is the first time we've had two Caravelles in one of these threads.

I have one very similar to your Dad's, too. The case cutting is really nice, and yes, the 11DP movements seem to go on forever.

Thanks. It's crazy to imagine a 30 dollar watch can be just as exciting as a 5000 dollar watch. Gotta enjoy the simple things sometimes.

Yep. Money has very little to do with which watches sing to the individual.

All that matters is whether the watch makes one happy while it is on the wrist.

That's a good catch on the blue.... It's so hard to notice even in person
