That is one impressive collection Ron. Envious? You bet I am :roll: . Oh, I'm a recent convert to Cape Cod cloths and so I will be acquiring one of those tins with LOADS of them inside aswell soon :brit

You must have a favourite, which one?

Hi, KMG. Oh, easy choice. The B-1 has been my favorite since I acquired it. The most useful timepiece in the world as far as I'm concerned. Below are a few earlier group shots. The more things change the more they remain the same.... or something like that... :wink:
Best,
Ron

Thanks, Frank. Gotta admit it is a favorite of mine also. I think the absolute rarity of the slate UTC kitted with the factory diamond bezel probably makes this piece a true "one of a kind". I wear it for dress (more often with the UTC specific OEM black croco strap) but it is an everyday casual wearer which gets almost as much wrist time as the B-1. The diamonds on a gent's watch were not my thing but because it was a 60th BD gift from wifey, I gladly accepted it and now I've gotten used to the bezel. Actually, I prefer it over the standard bezel now. I doubt I would ever sell this kit but I suspect it would go pretty quick If I decided to do that... :|
Best,
Ron

Sweet pics Ron, some quite new (for me). I especially like the Back to the Future story which I do not recall seeing before. :lingsrock:

Great photos Ron - I especially liked the sweets one (very imaginative).

Well, it's nice that your favourite is the B1. I had a blue faced B1 and it was a lovely watch and then I replaced it with the black faced Airwolf. Though both are great watches, my preference lies with the 'Wolf (prefer the compass points bezel, the buttons and the strap shoulders (where the strap joins onto the watch) :) but I hate the skeleton hand and I miss the lume dot on the bezel :cry: . The skeleton hand is on borrowed time - I hope to get it replaced soon :D .

Ron, i am sure it would sell in minutes, i have been looking to buy a utc module for a long time, i dont even
have an EVO at the moment. if i find a nice utc, i will buy the watch that fits it after. that is just to show how much i love it. the diamond bezel compliments the whole thing. its a winner
