This One's for You Dan.......
I finally caved to buying something other than "Rolex", even though it is not far off. I have to say that I have always wanted one of these, but finally found the RIGHT one for me. These are the seller's pictures, but I will try and get some on a NATO tomorrow. Hope you enjoy, because I really think that I love it. Something about those light chocolate colors for the hands, hour plots, and bezel pearl. Patina goodness
Never polished case either.

A couple more pictures........now these are mine. I honestly don't think that there is a blemish on the dial, hands or even the insert. I am so excited about this one.
The butterscotch (I borrowed that from one of the other members) patina is even better in person.

Yes, DP is DEFINITELY partially responsible for this purchase Several years ago, I had really wanted a Tudor Snowflake, but the desire had waned over the years. Dan keeps on posting those beautiful pictures of his blue one, and it finally pushed me over the edge.
