Can’t get the idea of a vintage 166.077 outta my head.

That is all.

I’ve been thinking about those too.

But just found a new build sm300.

Wouldn’t mind one, either. On a proper, vintage ISO.

Didn’t know the dude died.
But you or someone killed that thread years ago. I searched and searched and it’s gone.

Ploprof doesn’t do anything for me. The guy at one of the local watch shops was wearing one when I visited one day, and even in person still no. I’m with Hop on the other discussion though.

I’ve only tried the modern version. Big watch on my skinny wrist, but I still love it. Do it, Mike.

Those, and a choice SM300 I’ve been lamenting missing out on for years now.

I had these both also! I love the big blue. Had a beautiful version with tons of spare original parts. Oh well.

And the grand....nothing like it!

But...if I had to nit....the shrouded lugs make for hard fits on large wrists.
