That's a cool looking watch, don't see that shape very often. What's the size of it? :cheers:

Always loved the silverstone, though I tried one on once and it looked ridiculous on me. I don't have enough flava for that one :fro:

Received this puppy yesterday. Here are a few more details and a few pictures.

The official designation is Silverstone Ref. 110.313F ( Flume ) It's dimensions are 42 mm x 44 mm x 14 mm, and is fitted with a 22 mm strap. The movement is a Heuer Caliber 12 micro-rotor automatic, operating at 21,600 BPH. The Silverstone watches first appeared in Heuer catalogs in 1974 and came in three dial colors, blue, burgundy, and smoke (flume).

Here are a few pictures of the Silverstone and a comparison shot of my Monaco and Silverstone.

Absolutely stellar. :fro:

Those subdial hands are wicked. :headbang:

And now, since having the Halios Puck... I see where Jason got the inspiration for the seconds hand on the Puck. :clap:
