Can't add anything but really considering buying a 50 fathoms in steel, probably on a steel bracelet

Lovely thread and some very special watches. I've had mine coming up 18 months and I still find details I've not noticed before.

Hopefully a 42.3 regular production will soon be an option too!

Just ordered this Rose Gold and Gray Dial Flyback from Chrono24! Can't wait to get this on my wrist!
Once I get it in my hands, I will share more pics. (Verification pic of actual watch below from the dealer) Sent from my IN2017 using Tapatalk |

I’m off on a 500 round trip next week to try a few on with a definite view to purchase.
Appointment was booked in with the boutique in London last week. A timely thread. |

I’ll keep you posted. I fancy a 52a but you never know until you try them on. Good to know that the London boutique staff are good, that give you a certain amount of confidence walking into the shop. There first thing Monday so we shall see then.

That's the one I have. I can tell you, it will surpass all your expectations. In look, finish and accuracy. It's an amazing watch. Never to be sold IMO. A true heritage piece.
