And I've bought a half-price Revue Thommen Airspeed from http://en.relojesexclusivos.com/

And I have 208..

Here's one:

The funny thing about the film is that it would put me off buying an IWC, as the message is that mere mortals aren't worthy. So I'll say 'up yours' to IWC and stick to more conventional (and...

Impressive, but odd advertising film featuring John Malkovich and a couple of (real) Spitfires.

I'm not sure it makes me want an...

My new Revue Thommen Airspeed Classic Titanium. Definitely cool.

Folks might be interested to know that in the end I did decide to buy from Relojes Exclusivos (http://en.relojesexclusivos.com/). The half-price Revue Thommen Airspeed Classic Chronograph arrived...

Thanks, but I did search. Plenty of references to relojes especiale (a Spanish Watch forum) but none of relojes exclusivo. Hey ho.

Hi All,

Does anyone have any experience of buying from http://www.relojesexclusivos.com ? They have a watch I'm keen to get hold of - a Revue Thommen Airspeed - at half price. Too good to be...

If you want a well-regarded watch with its own pedigree, take a look at a Junghans Max Bill Chronoscope. Similar style to Portugese. Around £1000 I think:

I think a Speedbird looks just fine on a strap:

This isn't a GMT, but you get the...

PRS17C of course!

I think the advice you've been given is correct. It wasn't a UK model, and in any case is now obsolete. There used to be a number of dealers on ebay that supplied it, but no more.

Shame, as it's...

Thanks, that's good to know. However, I've just realised that although this watch has an inner rotating bezel (which is good) it's count down rather than count up (which isn't - it just baffles me)....

Good point! Always nice to hear from the horse's mouth, though.

This Airboss has the ETA 251.262 movement to give centre-minutes as well as centre-seconds (like the PRS 17C), so should be very...

I'm tempted by this half-price Airboss:

This is from Watchworx. Navigator, I think. The bars are slightly curved/bent.

I am a pilot (PPL). I use the 17C when flying. Doesn't that make it a pilot's watch?

I really like my 17C. I do use it as a pilot's watch, and because of the centre minutes hand it's much more useful than any chrono not similarly equipped. If it was a tad bigger with clearer...

This: http://www.watchworx.co.uk/pages/lwb/elitePop/AVIATOR%20CHRONO.htm is very nice. I have a brown one on my PRS22 and a black one on my PRS17C.

Chrisparker, that is perfect. Sometimes, less is more.

I suppose the pleas for a Dreadnought are predictable, but it would be the SB3 GMT for me.

However, I agree with the comments that the dial could be toned down a little, maybe with green instead...

I think it has gone. Great watch, glad I've already got one!

There was a thread last year about centre minute chronos, and 'Timelord' produced this extremely useful list of 251.262 watches:
