Hi Guys,

With the help of some great guys on various forums.....looking over a few models along with some patience this came around.........so I finally pulled the trigger, and all I can is why did I wait so long! It is hard to get off the wrist. Thanks to everyone and will post more photos after new strap arrives. Cheers to all and happy hunting!

Looks great- I owned a similar one a while back (not my photo)

Note the "tropical" sub-dials which had turned a slight brown colour. Think that this one had new hands fitted by TAG Heuer too and a re-lume

I sold my collection a few years ago to TAG Heuer in China...so if you are ever walking past one of their boutiques and you see the heritage section, chances are you'll see my old watches!

The only one I have left is this Lemania Silverstone

Amazing David. I'm sure it was hard to part from them, but at least they are in good hands.

It was and it wasn't. I found that there were quite a few NOS watches with stickers that I wasn't wearing...as a collector they're special, but what's the point of having a Ferrari in the garage that you don't drive? I still have several re-edition models (Monaco, Monza, Carrera), the Silverstone above and my trusty 4000 quartz!

Great analogy, nothing sadder than an undriven sports-car; at least your watches are being proudly displayed and hopefully well cared-for by the TH boutiques.
