What pearl is in that insert?

Pearl and insert from Yuki.
Lovely dial. Did you relume it yourself?? Can I also ask where you got your spring bars from? Gen?

Thanks. Yeap, I re-lumed the Yuki dial. Gen-spec springbars from Watch Sales Outlet.

I was just thinking how nice the dial was. Didn't know it was a yuki. How is the gilt on it? Assume it's printed, by I'd imagine if there's enough clear coat you probably couldn't tell. 

 

Very nice piece!

Thanks. Yes, the gilt is printed, it's fine on the wrist though. Here's a close up.

Dragged this out of storage and slapped in a (gasp) new battery. Haven't worn it in 10 years! No fan of Quartz but the watch has provenance as a military issued watch.

Nice, reminiscent of the Heuer 1550SG

I agree with you. I dig both of mine very much!! The Heuer is a slept-on piece. It was available for next to nothing up until last year. I think people are finally catching on to the stellar Flyback Valjoux 230 mov't & also the fact that the watch is thin but 43mm in diameter without the pushers/crown. It's a big contemporarily-sized watch but elegant and wearable due to its thinness!
