Thought some of you may be interested in this desk clock - there are a few Seiko fans and a few aviation fans in our ranks :)


This came from a contact in Sussex .
The story is a little hazy from him as it’s a good few years old !
The gents colleague sold a car to a gent who , during discussions, revealed he was an ex civil pilot and had flown the B17 Sally B at a lot of air shows .
This is a pretty well known plane - its featured in a number of films - principally Memphis Belle and We’ll meet again .

It ticks away nicely and has the little commemorative plaque on the top which is a nice touch . I’m trying to get hold of some of his collected memorabilia to go along with it .

I like it in its own right, the back story, which I can’t prove I suppose, adds a bit of interest :)
