Yeah, I have a Cockpit with Grey dial. Its a nice watch... the grey dial is by far the nicest of the bunch in my opinion. The big date is nice and easy to read too.

I also have a Cockpit - black dial in my case (but I'll forgive admin for being wrong :wink: ).

I find it a great watch for me - can dress up or down and not have it seem out of place.

Nope.. all steel. I wasn't really a big fan of TT.. but lately i've been contemplating a TT purchase.. just for variety.

Also SS bracelet. Accuracy has been within the COSC parameters - it's not perfect but then it's a mechanical watch and I wouldn't expect perfection.

I do like the TT - hoping Santa will bring me a TT Legende, but loved the simplicity and contrast of the black and SS combo on the cockpit.
