It was one of those mornings when it felt like the postman would never arrive, but he did, and under his arm was a parcel that needed my scrawl.
Inside was a Tudor that I'd been after for a while - a 79270 Oysterdate Chrono with silver dial and black sub dials, luckily it also came with all the extra's
Here is a terrible, terrible photo just to give you guys some idea what I'm rambling on about (taken about 15mins ago!)


I will post better pics of the Air-King-Date and this Tudor when I get a spare minute or two

VERY nice Tudor Chrono, Neil. I always like that model, because it provides the look and feel of an early Paul Newman Daytona without having to double-mortgage the house to buy it!

Congrats on the fine selection, and thanks for sharing!

Very Nice! I've started to think that I need a chrono also - would definitely like to have that one in the stable (or Princes for that matter!).

Congrats!
