    Go on so B, throw my hat in the ring. That reminds me, I have a nice new timex I'm not using, I'll throw it up after your draw.

    Martin is in ;)
    Attached below are some pics of the watch and 2 of the straps.
    It is a bit dinged on the coating, but perfectly serviceable and functioning.

    I forgot to add info on the watch itself, specs and info here https://www.mykronoz.com/uk/en/smart-watches/zetime-elite.html?

    I was a Kickstarter backer, but my original watch was replaced so it's not KS edition case.

    Thanks so much Banie. And to pay it forward, I'm going to throw in a Vostok when I get the chance. Usually terms and conditions apply.

    Easy lads, he hasn't put it up yet.
    I recently bit the bullet and purchased a vostok as my daily workhorse, so I'll bow out of this one, only fair.

    Howdy folks.

    I'll bring it the Vostok into work today, upload photos and make it official. Now, what with it being this time of year, I won't be sending it out until after Christmas.

    Right lads (and lassies/lassie/those that identify as women). Here's some pictures of the watch, not the actual watch because I forgot it in my mad rush out of the house.

    Thank this post to be in the draw.

    Strap is the same as the bottom photo.

    Fair play, indeed. I have had a Vostok, purchased new in Minsk, since 2002. I love it.

    It is a Vostok Partner with an submarine on the dial.

    It has the 2416B auto movement and has been serviced a few times over the years, but not a lot. As can be seen, it is well worn.

    I completely agree with the above sentiment, every watch enthusiast should have a Vostok.

    I'll not throw my name in the hat for this one, but whoever gets it, gets a great watch.

    Birneybau very generous of you, count me in as I've never had one.

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    Thanks a lot Banie, arrived today. It's very interesting, just charging it now.

    Might add the watch on the right into the draw as well.

    Anyway, I'll do my draw on Monday, it's gonna be one of those weird weeks with Christmas and that so will ship it the week after.
