One of the main characters on the AMC series "Halt and Catch Fire" wore a reverso chronograph (one side time, other side stopwatch) in the series after she became wealthy. First time I ever saw one! I saw it was a JLC and new that it probably would cost me a multiple of my yearly income. First time I saw one and it was memorable.
Don Draper did too!

Great show BTW. Scoot McNairy and Lee Pace are pretty damn good actors. Really liked Scoot in Narcos and True Detective too.

I won both those auctions. I’m very pleased with this one. Second day air shipping. Extremely well packed. And I got it for what I think was a great price! What I’m really liking is how well this watch wears for its size. It’s 42mm with a 22mm lug width and it feels about the size of my Datejust. I really like the 60’s vibe I get. Kinda like what my dad would’ve worn at White Sands before he went back to get his doctorate.

What happened to picking up a BB Pro?

You're going to have to custom order an Erika's strap off her website with black hardware for the B&R. Turn around time is really quick right now. I ordered a strap from her on 1/20 and it will be here through DHL on 1/30. Sahara full or Sahara two tone with black hardware would look perfect on that watch.

I’ll have to go to Denver soon and they tell me there’s a Tudor factory store there…

Sooooo..... speaking of BBs......they're selling the green from Harrod's online now....

Speaking of green, this came in the mail today from Erika's. It's the Vintage option that's made from NOS French parachute webbing. The same stuff that the original MN straps were made from. It's on the Dagaz for now, but I'm fighting the urge to find an SPB237 like yours.

I ordered an Erika's Full Sahara last night for it, per your suggestion. Hate waiting for straps.
