Beaten by time!

Alas, I just don't have the time to complete this.
So, if anyone's interested in a nice wee Monaco project, drop me a line :-)

Lucky find?

As you probably know already, the strap is actually made from a synthetic material called Corfam manufactured by DuPont and dating from the late 60's, early 70's.
The one pictured is the correct strap for an Heuer Monaco of that period :-)
Best bit is the all original Heuer buckle too with the correct 'Sun' stamp on the back.
A very rare find these days.
If you want to see a really tatty old Corfam, look here!

124 Spider - 70s Pininfarina meets Heuer MasterTime

New year resolution No 957 is to get the Spider on the road by April.
Tempted to have a go @ doing the timing belt myself also.

3 foot drop - before and after!

Yesterday one of my boys reached onto the table to grab my mobile phone.
He didn't realise my Bremont MB was parked on top of it and the worst happened,
The Bremont fell to the floor!
A stone floor!
Face down!

Before -

 After -

Zero difference!
No damage whatsoever :-)
Brilliant Bremont :-)
