Just beautiful, Jeff! I was thrilled to examine Pav's vintage red SD w/ dome plex at the KY GTG. The dome rules!

Thats a great looking watch Pav and so lucky for you young fellas.....my aim was to get a birth year sub, but unfortunately that is not possible.... I may have to settle for a 21st birthday year sub instead.....
