You're welcome!
(loving the Smiths btw... EDIT - can I ask how noisy the miyota rotor is in that one? I have the everest expedition model and it is a seriously rattly thing - I was wondering if I was just unlucky or whether that is pretty standard)

AIUI rotor rattle is pretty standard across Miyota movements, but my Everest only does it occasionally (or if I really try to spin it). I don't mind it - it's infrequent enough that I can just enjoy it as a quirk.

Thanks - I think I must have a noisy one - I simply rotate my wrist to read the time and it spins like mad (and noisily) for a good 5-10 seconds.

I can hear the thing spinning if I shake the watch near my ear but just wearing it out & about I've never heard anything, though my hearing is a little damaged so if it's high pitch I'm not going to hear it.

Absolutely. There's a watch for everyone!

Looks like a Sea Dweller fucked an Explorer and Helson filmed it.

Where does one purchase?

From an AD. I reckon ejay is your man here.
The bracelet is high quality but has no taper so visually I thought it looked quite large on the wrist (the polish adds to that). Omega rubber straps are very nice at the moment and they really suit this new 300M reference - all IMHO.

Rad, just the other dial variant, lovely. Mine’s a 4843-8023, yours is the -8030 but quite interesting not just for that shimmering textured dial but your reference actually came with two different movements (revised to take a smaller battery).
Both of ours were the top of range in ‘76 due to the hardened stainless steel cases too... such bargains!

Yeah no worries, I recognised your bezel in the catalogue as soon as I saw it.

New watch on its way.
Hopefully here for next Friday's Show & Tell. Similar to some on here but different.

You went for the solid gold G-shock?

Not a fan of pvd but the aged version looks good.
I'd like it without it more though.

There’s a nice Lemania version too (Heuer is nicer) but you can’t go wrong with a bit of colour.
