very cool pics and cool watch, i love the look of them but i hated wearing that clock, i did a review a few years back with it around my beagle millers neck , the strap alone could be used as a dog collar , those are huge, that is why i went with a vintage piece very similar but no cg, it has the 8mm brevet crown which i think makes it a bit smaller on the wrist and wears a bit more comfortable

here is the reference to it viewtopic.php?f=84&t=15363

good luck

Hey Joe...I thought that the only 6152-1...had a Radiomir dial instead of the MM dial. The MM dialed ones, had a crown guard on them, didn't they?? I am asking because I have the exact same watch with the MM dial like yours...but after searching the internet, I ordered the Radiomir dial. Correct me if I am wrong.

very cool!!
i love my fiddy. I wish i could give it more wrist time but im just not a "strap" guy. I'd never sell it though. its an important part of my collection and a beautiful watch. You should for sure get one. I got mine from Angus with the asian movement and its freekin sweet! Its got the lume and canon pin fix and it was very cheap considering the high quality. Be sure to get the saphire crystal upgrade though or you'll regret it later. Just read all the posts about busted crystals. Mine broke when it was sitting on my desk. Too much stress on it or something from the bezel i assume.

good luck!

IMO, you can mix and match however you want. I mean, let's face it, these watches would be 60+ years old and were military items when they were used. I'm sure, at one point or another, nearly every combination of dial/case/hands was used. Go with what you like...
