I have both the 29A and 29AM and the winding action is definitely easier on the 29A. That's not to say the Air Ministry is difficult to wind, just needs a bit more effort than the other.

It's a bit soon to share survey results when hardly any time has passed. In any case, boobies for me.
Hooray for boobies.

Yes I read this and despite the positive review, the size issue annoyed me a little. I struggle to understand the fixation with size. 7 inches isn't a huge wrist, it's fairly average - 36mm is just...
Really lovely, Eddie. I'm an art deco fan myself. Not had much experience on PVD, hopefully given where it is, it wouldn't be too prone to scratches or chips. I do like the idea of bronze too,...
It's strange that you haven't seen one with a screwback case. I wonder if there's a mystery model not listed, or perhaps they had some spare A258s but added the syringe hands. I'd love to see some...
You'll love it! It works on almost any strap, it's my favourite diver. The hands are very unusual too.

Thank you! I noticed you posted one on the MWR forum. Like yours, it's a snap back case. I have the Smiths compendium and know the A459 is meant to be a screw back. As it looks like an A459 from the...
Excellent! I have both the Precista PRS-82 and the Smiths Air Ministry. Fine watches in any collection. http://snupp.it/d1SGKM

What a lovely watch. Just had a look in my Smith's watches book by Barrie Smith and think I've found your new to you timepiece....
Bravo to Peter Jackson for making it. I had no idea returning soldiers were treated so shabbily when they returned home. It's one thing for the economy to be suffering and general life being hard,...
A chum told me about this. Will definitely be watching.

I'd be very grateful for the contact details of your watchmaker. I'm in Greater Manchester so very handy indeed. Thanks.

Yes I can hear it too!

For me, the AM does have a charm that makes it stand out from other timepieces out there. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20181106/b4d8a25a2172b4e3731a0978a6e01749.jpg

There is something perfect about the inky black dial on the 29A. I like simple watches like this and looking over my collection, I seem to have a thing for domed crystals.

I need to get a nice leather strap for the Air Ministry. I was in a rush this morning so swapped the NATO for the clip-on strap supplied with my PRS-29A. Does the job for now!...
It's interesting. I have the previous PRS-29A with the acrylic crystal and never noticed a blue dial. It's always been an inky black. The hands on my Air Ministry are most definitely blue, but under...
Rich is inspiring me too, I think I'll order one for mine.

Another satisfied customer here. Picked up no. 57 from the sorting office this morning. The blue hands are special. They really come to life in natural light....
A real beauty [emoji7]

If I was you, I'd be waiting patiently outside from 7am in case Eddie opens early. A few people seemed to get their orders in before 7.30am on release day. I was on the verge of ordering from 7.30am,...
Really lovely choice of straps. The burgundy is a fine idea.

Exactly 7 inches. It was 7.25 but lost a few pounds recently.

Great shot! [emoji122] I've not been so excited about an incoming watch in a long time
