Nicely done, but beware of startling some of the indigenous residents…

I agree underrated, I came very close to buying one a few years ago, thought the 1911 Discovery was superb value, but then I also nearly bought a Corum Admiral's Cup and Zenith Defy Xtreme as it was a very experimental time

Discovery comes with ETA 7750, which is a bullet proof chrono movement. But BTR has cal 137 which is much more prestigious. Breguet uses the same movement.

Cheers mate.

Great review, and good looking watch! I own several 1911's, but they're not watches.
