Great to see some old classic models in your weekly mix.

Re: A week of Wards (not the hospital kind)
A great series of pics. My favourite is the first one with the matching feet.
watching you fail in your quest for a “one watch” has been great entertainment

Excellent collection! Is Friday’s a green bezel?! The green bezel, white dial GMT is a stunner!

A splendid series of photos. As Kip says, it’s good to see some of the older models.
I think they used to charge extra for the feet.

My favourite of those is the 38mm green bezel, white dial GMT.

Thanks for commenting everyone.
Yeah, it's the green bezel GMT as others have mentioned.
The colour of the bezel changes depending on the light.
If you turn the lights off at night, it is black

Good to see someone who else enjoys their classic CWs.

Re: A week of Wards (not the hospital kind)
That’s the only colored bezel combination I really like - the white dial with green bezel. Put it on a camel leather strap and I think it’s just about as good looking as a watch can get!timeonourhands wrote: ↑Mon Sep 20, 2021 7:13 am Yeah, it's the green bezel GMT as others have mentioned.
