The 55 is just about as close to perfection in a watch as you can get for me, just stunning

Great Pics

Thanks everyone , they really are *very* nice watches .

Quite surprised the 1955 gets the compliments instead of the 53 , they're all quite rare but for me its the 53 that tales the lead ;-)

Well, if you want an AVI , dont wait too long , theyre getting quite pricey and sought after

The 'bomber jacket' is just that , a vintage pilots jacket , used as a backdrop to take pics , the course brown leather makes a great background for those vintage pieces

Next time ill try my vintage leather , black and orange , motorcycle jacket ;-)
