Congrats!!!! Welcome to the 90's club! Seems quite a few forum members have pulled the trigger on this one! Dang, I really need to get that book now!
^That's a really excellent shot! It also captures the silvery finish on the asphalt dial better than most of the other pics out there.
Back on topic (and away from "tatties" LOL), @ASW, how do you like the 90s watch? Was the book a complimentary gift?
So I think I figured out what the above background image is. Seems to be some kind of laptop bag or briefcase.
I think it’s awesome, definitely happy with it. My only negative, and I’m sure it’s the same for all of them, but the box is sub-par and put bluntly rubbish. I’m not a box fanatic, but they could have spent a fiver on it and doubled its quality. Yes, I messaged my AD weeks ago about it - the book was in long before the 50s.
