For me? New arrival from yesterday.

No; not a Sealander but a C65 AM GT 2 VEV.
Congratulations Guy !
I do like the black bezel on the 2VEV.

I’m curious if you were actually timing something, or were you letting it run purely for the pic?

I'd initially had the Chrono running to time a piece of Gammon that I was simmering for Sunday lunch but that completed, as so often is the case I omitted to stop it.

Cheers Ferg.

I prefer the black bezel to the steel bezel of the GT / 1 VEV. Seems to make it wear larger.

That's exactly the way I would have my bronze bezel (if I had one). Patina on the flats with the numbers cleaned. Really make the whole thing pop. Well done. :clap:

Thanks guys. Confess I was a bit worried I would make a mess of the lower surface of the bezel but it came out relatively unscathed..
