I'm surprised that the bezel has survived so long. I have a 5600E that I rediscovered after 15 years. Wore it once to the gym and the bezel crumbled. Can't get a replacement for that since it was a relatively rare model only briefly in production. Casio G-Shock DW-5600 (901 cal) that I wore 21 years straight Still my favourite watch. Photo was taken a year ago! Date nearly worked out

( Four ...$100.00 bills ) He said his brother had one while in Vietnam years ago. ( The Watch on the .... " Right Side with the Bracelet ". )

That must have been something to see Tony. Those tri-motor warbird transports were pretty unique in their day. I'm always fascinated by the materials used be it corrugated metal, plywood, steel or linen. This model is the JU-52 with a tip of the hat to the real thing that flew over your place. This one is an automatic with an ETA movement. It's a tad small but I wear it once in a while because of the cool hands. By the way, since that plane was in Swiss markings, did it drop any chocolate bars on to your neighborhood? Better than paratroopers I reckon! Here in Hamburg, we still have one JU-52 flying tourists to get a look at the city from above. Very distinct sound! I hear it almost every day at work, as we are close to the elbe river and city center. No that sounds very cool. Have you been up in it yet?
