Lovely ! Especially the Croton - what module does that use BTW ?

I saw one on 'bay (not sure if exact same model) recently and was sorely tempted.

Cheers

Thanks James.
The module is a Hughes 25mm, I have the same model in gold tone which is fitted with a 'Have A Happy Day' message module. I am curious to find out if the black sides are original to the watch or have been added later? I like it the way it is, so I wouldn't change it and if it has been added who know what mess lies beneath.

Thanks LEDluvr - It is my favourite also, I haven't seen one with the solar panels and the 'red' crystal before.

The crystal is not really red it's the typical Uranus coloured crystal which has a blue\purple tint, not sure how else to describe it.

Yes, I've noticed that in various pictures over the years. I like it- it sets them apart. I have yet to own one, I imagine it's more noticeable when it's on your wrist. Hmm... I wonder if fronzelnekburn has any for sale :idea: :?:

No, only the one digit lights up. :-(
