    There you go Ian. A little more than I paid, I reckon the strap'll be crap, mine was but just fit a decent one & you've got a nice looking watch that will belie it's price tag.

    Cheers Roy, funny thing is I did a bit of digging around in the afternoon and found that very one on Amazon so I paid the money and it's due here between Monday and Thursday next week. I'll get one of those Milanese mesh straps for it, Mondains come with them and anyway I hate that brown thing it comes with lol. I'll just keep saving for a Mondain Stop2go.

    Yes, that 'brown thing' does look pretty awful, mine came on a faux leather black strap. I hope you like the watch after the build up I've given it.

    New cheapy today, this Parnis on a wide awake strap
