Thank you! The end link for the bracelet you gave me made all of the difference. IMO the bracelet is the only way to wear this watch. Its a keeper for life

Switched to the Jungle Green Toxic. Chris was right, it’s a great combo!

Took this one out for a play today -
Brilliant. Love it.

What does the text mean?
'Regulated ['reguliert'] for Sidereal ['sternzeit' = 'star time'] time', which is about 4 mins a day slower than usual; used for astro-navigation for artillery units.
huh, learned sorting new today
probably a dumb question - do you set it 4 minutes ahead or just go with it?
No - they either get deregulated when out of the military or the 'regulation' just means they set it to Sidereal time for when they need it (you can calculate variance on astronomical tables). There are only about 50 of this version [Heuer]; the predecessor was the Leonidas version and the replacement was the Tengler Bund.
