Redfire1066 10,946 Posted December 2, 2020 @Philiusmaximus I like it .. easy to wear and dial is super clear for reading .. .. . keeps excellent time with the Swiss ETA2824 . .. and the lume is superb. . .. . . . I was looking for a different watch that had a similar style when I came across the Helson Squadron .. . . the Hruodland Steel Big Pilot, with Aged Steel Case and Fume Dial . ... too late to the party to buy the specific model at WRwatches, this spec Hruodland Watch sold out quickly . .. . .. searched and searched for months to find one used on the web with no success .. they do the same watch in various other dials, cases & hand sets . .. .. but for me the aged vintage, fume dial looked the best .. .. a Limited run of 199 that sold out on the day . .. . .. and while in a similar Big Pilot style .. . .. for me the Helson has a better movement with the ETA2824 than the Hruodland Pilot which has the Seagull ST2130. https://wrwatches.com/collections/hruodland/products/hruodland-steel-big-pilot The Helson Hammerheads look good too .. they did do a run with Swiss ETA2824 which I would prefer ... . but seems now they are using Miyota and I am not the biggest fan of Miyota Movements .. . .. in my experience I always found Miyota movements noisy with the rotor. . .. and seem slack on the winding ... You might pick up a nice second hand Helson Hammerhead with a ETA2824 . 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
