Check out the Kaktus straps. I don't even have my 183 yet and I am looking at those to put on it. They're really nice!

either 0005 or a 112 . i dont really like the PAM's with complications that much. the simple designs look outstanding to me. I prefer the Radiomir style but it would be nice to have a luminor too - not a great fan of teh Submersibles, but there is still time...
you planning on getting one in the near future?

My first "real watch" was a 177 back in 2004. I have wanted an additional one ever since. Came real close 6 months ago to buying a white faced 113 but, changed my mind. Now, that 88 and the 233 look real good to me... too good...

Well, there are some advatages to having a basic movement. Easy to service or repair, reliable and proven, and simple. Try getting a Patek in-house movement repaired in Kathmandu. But, you could get your Unitas movement repaired in Kathmandu.
