Thanks Everyone,

The thing that attracted me to the Airborne was the fact that it was only 38mm as I felt pretty sure the oversized watch phenomena was coming to end back then ( another example of Bullfrog getting it completely wrong) I still find it hard to understand the interest in watches the size of dinner plates. At least the dials were in the right place unlike the other Navitimer models from that period. The calendar is daft on the Airborne though.

The Sprint is sticking on chrono ( as I mentioned in an earlier post) and I have thought about selling it or this one:

However I have sold a few others recently including a very nice 782 from 1946 :oops: and my collection is small enough that I am trying not to reduce it further just now.
