The original which I was fortunate to own in Rose Gold with black face comes with a tiny test tube with spare date set for the next millenium! AJ

Thanks Mike This is a bit of you I think! AJ

Kain Heritage just arrived and straight on she goes:)

Guys This is the first time I have used Kain and cannot say how delighted I am with the service and quality, it is a true work of art in a very artisan way and is certainly worth every penny paid, I will certainly be buying more from these guys. Regards AJ

Bloody Fantastic S, I am thrilled and delighted for you, well deserved. Regards AJ

Fraggle, I know that one for sure! Regards AJ

I will match you Ben, hoping the new Ostrich arrives for her today as well as the IWC Big Pilot in RG

I get so tired of winding so the 8 day power reserve is on!

I have a few for sale including this one, typically $5-1000 dollars depending on the movement. For example I'm building a repeater at the moment as well as a stunning Glasshute with a diamond in the hour hand. PM me if you want photos details. AJ

Thanks Guys Lets say it's my watch for today as I head of to London shortly for numerous meetings and I will gauge the reactions!

I have a lady in Europe that re enamels dials for me and it would be an easy job for her to reposition the numbers around the egg shaped dial, its just the work and expense, I will see how i get on with it before going that route. Its fine so long as you look along the plane of your forearm not perpendicular!

Morning chaps So a quick change of attire shows her wearing black croc as suggested. The second photo shows the rear of the case with a domed glass cover, this was required to clear the main spring housing and effectively means teh front and rear glass has been swapped around. AJ

That can be any colour you want, however with the quirky dial at 90 degrees I thought it looked ok! I will change it tomorrow and add some more conservative photos! AJ

My good friend Mike, yes he of on the Bike fame sent me a really lovely 8 day movement to play with and it arrived early this morning, so like all of us watch nuts, I set to work to create a new wrist watch and the results are below. What makes this quite unique is this is truly an 8 day movement so you can wind it on a Monday and put it on a week later and it will still be running (well that's the theory) Have a look at the rear photo, that is one big main spring under that beautifully polished cover. The last photo is next to my PAM 372 which is as you know 47mm, the 8 day is 48mm Regards AJ

My favourite TD and I have had over 20 watches from him with great service and delivery within a week to the UK on more than one occasion! AJ

Threw this on today

Looks FAB, well done.

Morning Chaps Blue sunburst DSN PAM today with blue lizzard, well it is shining! AJ

Ben you have chosen wisely and Devilseam I guess the Rubber PAM strap fits ok. I just threw this on today, it is a really great looking watch and i love the mesh!

That's the luck of the draw I'm afraid. Out of 20 watches sent via Asia to the UK, I have had to pay customs twice so see it as some you win some you lose! AJ

Had this on most of the weekend, just ordered a rather special Kain Tan Ostrich for her!

Arrived yesterday so just had to be worn!

MARLIN of course!

Gone Bronzy today!

Arrived today and I am delighted, do you think the matching colour numbers on the case is a step too far, I can easily remove!
