Looks absolutely superb.

I just pray that a large amount of money will fall out of the sky and into my hands this week (next week is acceptable as well...) so that I can order a 14060M.

Beg, steal or borrow... You won't regret it!

I love mine!

The strap on the right is a regular NATO and the keeper is pulled away so you can see it, this is the part he cuts off.

The strap in the middle is an RAF pattern that does not have a keeper strap, so it sits a bit lower and the buckle is centered on the bottom of your wrist.

Cheers for that. May try it.

Thanks for the votes on the ink. Its a Raphael painting and I will post pics when finished.
