    Had my Speedmaster Pro on most of the week, but decided on a change this morning.



    Yet another of those watches I sometimes think about selling, but once I put it on, I wonder why I don't wear it more!

    It works. Pick a day like Sat or Sun when you have a bit more time, give the one coming off the wrist a clean and tidy before it goes back in the watch box or safe and select and prepare the next up. There is an enjoyment to be had from the process. Any watch that keeps getting the knockback for a full week on the wrist gets the chop. It certainly helps you create your favourites pecking order.

    Hi Red,

    The insert is the newly released domed and fully lumed Ceramic insert. Makes a lot of difference to the appearance. Bought it from e-bay. The seller seems to sell nothing else but Seiko mods. He has another indentical watch listed if you are after one:

    https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Seiko-5-S...EAAOSw9Z1abd0q

    If you check out 'Seiko Fifty' on a regular basis all sorts of different combinations seem to pop up. There are about three or four main sellers who seem to do this for a living.

    The bezel is a Yobokies (And annoyingly I see he NOW does a blue bezel! I would have killed for one of those a couple of years ago, when I had my blue Fifty Five Fathoms mod!

    Going off the sub dial at 6 o'clock think it says Fortis. Quick Google and it looks to be a Fortis Stratoliner. Funky looking piece!

    Haha. It's a Fortis Stratoliner 'West in Space' acquired from Howard (hhhh) and the exact watch featured here https://monochrome-watches.com/colle...r-chronograph/.
    I picked up another Andorra LE, the Mir 97, but have a sale pending on that as I'm trying to reduce the numbers.
