Marina Militare from Get-tat

Recommended Posts

AllergyDoc

This came in today from Get-tat. Ordered and paid for it 3 weeks ago. With EMS shipping it cost me $126.

 

My first Fiddy was from Tony when he was on iOffer. I phased out of PAMs and sold it, then bought a modded Fiddy from Sead for $329. I thought it was too pricey for what I got so I sold it a while ago. I love the model (can't you tell) so I order this from Get-tat. Paid $6 for superlume.

I chose the seal brown strap.

 

Crown, CG, and lever:

Lever fits very snug when closed but is loose when open.

Comes with the swan neck thingy. Pretty good for the price.

Pretty damn good. I'll give it the old "all night long test tonight."

 

Who's that reflected in the crystal? Jesus?

My only minor complaint: the strap holes are "in between", meaning one hole is a tad too tight and the next a tad too loose. I guess I'll wear it on the tad-too-loose setting.

 

All-in-all: a keeper! I like it as much as I liked Sead's, at about one-third the cost.

Not Jesus...Gerald Ford?

 

Looks great for the price Doc, those Getat straps seem to be worth nearly the price you paid for the whole watch...

Great watch, great pics. But....... Some of us just need help knowing the day of the month as well as the time. Well, I do anyway. If one of these had a date indicator, it would be the ultimate watch having a p***** and a C***.

Looks really good and the lever pin is flush. Hard to beat that for the money. ^_^

I don't think that strap is standard issue, but you can pick any of his straps. You just have to tell him which one and what color stitching you like.

 

I like your photos, as seen on your site. :D

I'm pretty sure a deployment buckle wouldn't work with this strap.

It's definitely James Gandolfini, Doc's best buddy.

Just wanted to add how much I've been enjoying this watch. The strap, the lume...

 

It's giving the Super Avenger and Skyland serious stress for wrist time. I wear it every night to bed. I've been told by air traffic control to keep it away from the window when it's charged--planes looking for the runway were getting distracted.
