Traveller sells another 233!

I have been eyeing a 233 to add to my collection for a few months. After reviewing all of Traveller's great pieces on the 233, I knew it was the piece for me. I am so appreciative for those of you (like Traveller), who are willing to take the time to provide great reviews and great pics. Traveller and I have never met or exchanged greetings, but my appreciation goes out to him - individuals like him make this a great forum!

Here is my latest addition.

Awesome!

One of my favorites! I wish they could make it with the 3 day movement and no GMT and sell it for around 7K.

Here is my latest addition.

He has a habit of doing that. OP should give him a commission on the number of pieces he moves for them.
Cheers, wear it in the best of health!
It's a beauty.

Thanks everyone!

Here it is on a navy Simona gator strap, and a cashmere calf OEM.

I have really been pleased with how this looks dressed up as well as casually.

With my 24, 111, and 388, it's now time to brave the world of 47mm with a 372.

Thanks again!
