217 lands

[jaykay]

After getting the bug with an 026k, i wanted something bigger and shiny.

Pams don't get much bigger and better than the Fiddy. Having the 026 made me realise i quite like the destro design of having the CG pointing up my arm, rather than catching up on my hand, and as i preferred the dial - the 217 was the obvious choice.

Think these are getting harder to source, so was glad when Toro got it to me in the UK in exactly a week from order. Again, he has done good!

Ps - any recommendations for 26x26mm straps feel free to shoot. Got a dark brown leather inbound from a member sale, but open to more options under $100 (if possible!!)

i need one of these, how good is it?

It's a stunner. Love the big domed crystal, makes the numbers look very funky from certain angles.

Doesn't wear as big as i thought it would at 47mm, though my 44mm 026 now looks tiny :-(

My first openback case too, pretty cool seeing what go's on!

Now lives on a new 1966 ammo from Timebandit
