Very clean Ron.

I have an early 809 in O & W guise (Aviateur). It's equipped with the Valjoux 7736/24 movement. They are a lovely watch and my avourite in the early Navitimer Series. I like being challenged by a 24 hour movement as its not easy to get used to.

Scott Carpenter was on the money for this in space but its more of a challenge here on earth!

Way to go.

Jim

Yep, pretty daunting. I would need lots of coffee before trying this one on, first thing in the morning.

One you fly regularly, I suppose! Dash 8, SAAB, Bombardier?
