I have one Guinand watch, a chrono with moonphase (Valjoux 7751) since July 2004. Great watch, well-built and awesome looking. Love it.

Stowa Airman 40 mm, COSC certified, old style Flieger strap.
It's a real sticker. Can't get it off my wrist. :shock:
It's such a fine watch that I'm seriously tempted. Perhaps the best Tutima hommage on the market.
Bernard, do you have a picture of this movement: "Minerva Naval Observatory Chronometer 1939"? If so, would you post a picture, please? (Definitely not a Russian copy of a pocket watch, methinks....
Just discovered this:

I've liked it at the first sight, but do you think it is really that good as it looks? Any comments welcome.
Very nice, but EUR 2500... trop cher, je pense.
Hi, Bruce. Greetings from Prague. Nice Stowas, BTW. I like this brand, too.

What a cool watch! The onion crown just sits on it.
I have a "regular" Stowa Airman 40 mm with COSC certified movement, and it's one of my most favourite watches. I have it on my wrist right now....
Stowa Flieger for me today.
Congratulations, Pawel, and wear it in good health.
Interestingly, I have a #25 DC 56.

Love that blue steel hands.
Sadly, don't have any. Patiently wating for the Timefactor's CAF... :(
ZX Spectrum was tremendously successful in Czechoslovakia in the 1980's. Lots of people had it via grey imports. It was never officially retailed.
It was not only useful as a computer, but also as...
I like both and wear both. Honestly, I use the chrono functionality quite rarely. Mostly during cooking.
I admit I sometimes miss the date function when wearing my Azimuth Bombardier III watch....
Right-handed, left wrist. Never even tried to put the watch on my right wrist. This idea just seems odd to me.
The CAF if it ever were finished. :cry:
Well - regulating a watch is a matter of a few minutes if you have a measuring equipment worth some USD 300 or so. Not a big deal. Russian wages are not among the highest in the world, so a little...
My first name is Pavel, and that's my nick. I'm one of the few ones here on this forum whose mother tongue is not English.
Pavel! It has the triangle pointing the right way, upwards :D That must be a new release? The old one pointed downwards :( Is the movement still a Fountainemelon ST 96-4?
Congratulations and...
