This one's for you Driver. I do NOT like the empty real estate on the dial of new 3880 (middle). I really enjoy the busier dials on the non-inhouse models.

Thanks for the shot Sergio! :thumbsup:

While I still like the in-house version, I have to agree with you that the older non-in-house models just look better. To be honest the empty "real estate" on the dial is what puts me off the latest in-house Speedmaster as well. I just think that pilots watches should be busy.

And congrats on your new Top Gun as well..... for as long as you own it anyway! :wink:

What's the difference between the 1st and the 3rd? What does the 3rd pusher do?

Pete you're such a noob!! Lol.

The 3rd is the Top Gun 46mm Dopple with has a double Chronograph. The firs is 44mm with a standard Chrono. Both modified eta's. Center is the 46mm 3880 with inhouse flyback movement.

Come on you rookie!!
