This watch came to my home from the collection of a fellow forum member : that means it stays in the family !!

Always felt that this was the one Moser for me.

The typical classic aviator style...with the very special "Moser touch" .

Of course with Moser it is the fumé style dial that is one of the highlights.

As you would expect from this style of watch the lume is outstanding and long lasting.

I also like this elegant case with the wire lugs : superb comfort on the wrist !

In-house movement with nice finishing and well regulated.

Some might think that 42 mm is too big for this watch.

This one is however the best and smallest wearing 42mm that I have ever encountered and this is due to the visually very discreet wire lugs....and the slim case profile.

Here on my 17 cm wrist.

Thanks for looking and another thanks to its former owner for the perfect transaction !!
