panerai153 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 Hey Mike, that looks pretty nice. looks like it would make a nice everyday, working in the yard or shop sort of watch.

panerai153 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 Be careful of that super doom lens and what in the world is a Pearl 2838 movement? That's a new one on me
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Looked it up before I bought KBH and others went over it at RWI , sort of inconclusive with a few guys researching so . here; http://www.replica-watch.info/vb/showthread.php?t=100349 There are pics maybe our guys can take a look , they may be able to shed some light .
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Where the Sgt he would love this. 1
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 I know Andy to small for me! LOL
panerai153 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 it will make a great raffle watch if it turns out to be too small!!
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Can always get more they have Big Crown version w/ red bezel also sharp, but I wanted matte dial. Sorry would not enlarge. Better!
astonjenks Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 Mike! If you intend to wear it on your wrist, you're right it's too small! If it's for another part of your anatomy it'll be fine! AJ
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Andy now there is a picture the guys will be trying to erase from their minds for days!
fraggle42 Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 For the price that's a super beater! Nice find
asciwhite Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 They have a big crown with matte dial..
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 I have seen it white just not available via my source right now in red bezel.
asciwhite Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 Ahhhh. okay I was a bit puzzled you might have missed it..
Nightwatch Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 It´s vintage, its black and its sober with these minor gold touches which go perfectly with it. Join a vintage Dunhill Unique lighter and some St. Dupont cufflinks to match and 007 would love it too:) Great buy, Mike.
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Have not seen yet w/ red, snow flake hands matte dial did see the one you have up.
sgtguk Posted January 5, 2014 Report Posted January 5, 2014 Looks great Mike but yes reckon it's a tad small for ya wrist mate Not sure on the other appendage either can you imagine, asked in the street by a lady 'excuse me have you got the time' you'd have to be careful in winter too for shrinkage!
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Thanks night like that lighter!
Mike on a bike Posted January 5, 2014 Author Report Posted January 5, 2014 Sgt worst that can happen is the guys get it in a raffle , sure a few would like this one.
