A386 - New Arrival

[dxbzenith]

Before posting pics first a "thank you" to all on this forum for the knowledge and passion being shared.
A special thanks to LouS for his endless patience reviewing with me the various options that came up whilst I was hunting for this specific model.

Arrived today, case number 231E081.
I love it when things in real life look even better than the pictures suggest...

What a classic beauty! The only thing wrong with that watch....is that it's not mine. Congrats.

It's watches like this that make me want chronographs!

She looks a good 'un, esp the case.

I wonder how much of the recent apparent spike in demand for A 386s is due to this forum?

Probably more than "familiar" for you .
Wearing it with great joy, hope it'll get company pretty soon...
