Bill Mahoney a/k/a "squinky." He has a few of these JB Champions left, NOS in the original box. PM me if you want his contact information.

:drool: You're absolutely right; the mesh looks great on this Navitimer! (tu)
Much better (imho) than on the Speedy, if I may so.
Nonetheless beautifull vintage collection :drool:
Thanks for the beautifull pics!

Thank you! I'm wearing my Cosmonaute today. . .

The band on the Speedmaster is a JB Champion, favored by the Astronauts over the Omega supplied 1506/1039 bracelets. See the discussion here: http://forums.watchuseek.com/showthread.php?t=37479

:) Thanks for the WUS-link; lots of info & historic pics!
Apparently they didn't mind that the width of the bracelet was less than the width of the lugs...
