Just over a week.

 

Sized the black bay. Bezel is actually centred. The crystal causes bit of distortion from certain angles. Sweep ain't bad either for a low beat and it kinda suits the retro styling

I like the 22mm bracelet on the BB over the 20mm on a sub, they really make the watch much better balanced and if anyone is thinking of trying one, like me a couple of weeks ago, I'm glad I did and for the price DFQ has found them a V3 (possibly) for £85 it's too good to ignore.

:thumbsup: for the guys with good enough taste and have or will order that Hamilton Ventura!

 

The Ventura has more watch history than a BB and SF combined. The Ventura was the world's first battery powered watch. It was designed by Richard Arbib who designed the Packard. He also designed the Hudson, the Time & Space concept car the Astra-Gnome. After cars, he started designing watches for Tourneau, Benrus,and Sheffield.

The Ventura was first introduced in Jan 1957 in 14K YG, then in 1958 in 14K WK and 18K RG in '59. All 18K Venturas were for export to Europe. The original 14K YG sold for $200. Hamilton estimated that a little over 11,000 Ventura were manufactured.

 

For Twilight Zone fans, Rod Serling could be seen wearing his 1957 Ventura in a number of TZ intros. The King, Elvis made the 14K YG famous when he sported it in the 1961 movie, Blue Hawaii.

 

Wear 'em with pride men! I do :)

Thanks for posting the link to this seller. I have pushed the button on a red bb with him/her and will post when it arrives. I asked the seller about the leather strap and they have now included it as an additional item to buy for those that might want it.

The only thing about this version is that the caseback has no engravings which I think would be fairly hard to photoshop and something they probably wouldn't bother doing. So I am thinking it does in fact have a plain caseback. Did the one you order have the correct engravings?

Think i will get a full black bay on leather as it is probably cheaper to get the whole thing from Ali than to just buy a clasp from a TD! My black bay is on its way back from Kenny and deserves some new shoes!

 

Edit. Nah just getting a strap. Anyone found a Tudor box set with the space for a strap?

Really great looking pieces. I am confused though by the SevenFriday. It comes in a box, is it gen or did I miss that they did reps of the entire packaging as well? With all the trimmings do people buy reps as gifts?

All the fashion brand watches on there come with full retail packaging. Reps but sold as gens by unscrupulous people in shops in the far east and most of em on ebay
