How about a base with a tobacco dial?

I have long wanted to add a 55 to the collection. BBQ once said in every collection.. there is always room for a titanium Pam! The combination of a brown tobacco dial and fat sausage numbers are just great in a titanium case. Base is indeed ace... I like it!

Here is a quick shot!

Thank you guys!

I once owned a 118, sold it and missed it ever since. I have an OEM cashmere gold coming so the color combination should fit titanium nicely!

Best,

Fred/NJ

Nice it's on my wish list along with a 118 but think the base just has the edge

Ah, it's a 055... niiiice, Fred


EDIT noob question; what's the difference between the 055C/D and a 116E/F? I'm going to assume they are all painted (and with Super-luminova)...
...the caseback (solid vs. exhibition)?

I do like the fat sausage numbers. Go for it.
