    Now we know. £495. The obvious competitor is the MkII Hawkinge. But the poor exchange rate added to VAT, confirms this is far better value.

    I just hope I can get one...
    This is my favorite watch but the original as a vintage watch is just not as easy to wear for me for the fear of damaging it.

    Indeed. But, my goodness, that is lovely.

    The strap would probably look nice on my Air Ministry. Are they likely to be available separately please?

    It could be an idea for the next batch

    So we know how much, now when do we press the button?

    A long time ago for me, but I guess I'm going to join the "who presses the button first and gets lucky" frenzy ;)

    Do we know if it is just the Navigator that will be able to be purchased or will we be able to order other watches.
    Hoping to pick something up for my dad and brother.

    Is everyone clear on timezones this time? UK & GMT are the same in the winter.

    This Navigator looks like such a beautiful watch and SO UP MY STREET! I may not get one on the 8th, but I'll be sure to get one at some stage. What a beauty!

    When the PRS-29a and PRS-29b were first released, I couldn't decide which to have, so bought both together.
    Much later, I decided that my beloved PRS-29a needed a back-up, sort of spare parts donor just in case and so it was. Quite recently I also added a PRS-29AM.
    This afternoon, upon reading Eddie's email, I too brought out my Speedbird as if to remind me that I really do have Pilot's watches covered.
    So come Sunday at 14:00 Hrs I will be out walking the beach at Formby.
    They do look tempting though....maybe a morning walk instead.

    Eddie, I just checked but PRS-25 Everest 36mm (version 3) showing out of stock? Any chance that back in stock?

    If no, any indication of when the PRS-25 Everest with gilt dial will be available?

    Thanks.

    Just wondering the same thing. I was one of the unlucky ones who got a confirmation order and then dumped on by the SagePay problem but didn’t hear anything after. (No email and nothing in junk either)

    what is the difference between "top" and chronomètre versions?

    The top version is the version with “Assortment chronometer”, which means it is capable of being adjusted to COSC. COSC appears to add £200 to the cost of a watch, is it worth it for a certificate telling you how it'a already running?

    That is a good point Eddie. I have had really good time on my Everest and PRS-29a and neither were COSC certified.

    I am almost completely aligned to this post! The problem I have is if I (am able to) buy this, I will have to let something go. And right now all of Eddie’s watches that I own are so good that I can’t see which it would be. Curses!
