A pleasant distraction from the daily grind :-)

This is of course my project 11630T with lots of orange bits.

I've had it for over 10 years now and it goes through various phases and transitions including hand/dial/bezel swaps :-)
Just noticed the date is slightly off centre - might need more investigation...

KAF Autavia 11630; Killer Dial!

I'd forgotten just how glossy these Kenya Air Force dials are!

Couldn't resist a sneaky peek :-)

Viceroy, reassuringly inexpensive!

It's reassuring that while other Heuer values might be spiralling out of reach you can still pick up a nice, honest Viceroy with bracelet for a fraction of the cost :-)

Well, for now anyway...:/

Great to smell petrol again!

Don't get me wrong, I love the Land Rover, but after a long winter of diesel, it's great to get the Spider running again and appreciate a carbureted petrol engine for a change :-)
Also fitted a new Aluminium radiator all the way from California.
Remarkably, I seem to have connected everything back up again correctly first time round and have no leaks :-)
