I have literally no idea. I like the hypno dial and the classically non nonsense hands but the Slava's indices are really nice (even though I know it's a ring of plastic, it works. The dial is nice and the odd date aperture whould look dreadful but actually adds to the style. Also I'm trying to overcome the minor detail that I am, to my shame, Timexisit. If the name on the dial was 'Osama Bin Hitler' instead, I'd probably shrug and vote for it. If ever there was a case for showing us the movements.

I could show the movement but at this stage it may Be unfair . That Timex is a good looker though.

yes be interesting to see the timex movement because it will be either hideously functional and plain or something a bit special ant really seen any other mix from timex that I have opened

Well I dug out the case back opener and it definitely falls under the functional category. Less is more?
