    There is a Rado forum over at Equation of time. It is very small and very quiet but it has a huge knowledge base.

    I have also been considering writing a piece about the five decades of the Diastar called Zero to Fifty, but where writing is concerned I can be really lazy.

    very similar, but it may not have the glass beads that the Breinzer does.

    There's a lot of dodgy Voyagers/Companions out there so be careful before you bid on one.
    Feel free to ask if you're unsure.

    It's a constant challenge as you'll find a watch with excellent dial and movement but then search for ages to get a case in good enough condition to make one decent example.
    Vintage watch collecting never ends, it just evolves...
