i am still happy about the one i bought a few months ago here in hamburg - i stille love to weare it - still a great feeling and an eye catcher ( at least for me ) - like to watch the old chrono mechanisme from riussec -
had a great evening with mr. GISBERT BRUNNER in HH about chronometers and chronoSKOPES they became in ther end ( the to be precise) - last week - so as u all know rieussec played the key role - by the way - does anybody know which of his chronometer modells was the fist one the mb is based on!?!?! we were not sure - since he designed 3. in the ned the 5170 was examined closely ---- no comments on that -
cheers

Honolulu has one
