This one ca fit with a mog  An old design which lasts Hobnail Calatrava, my favourite PP Not sure where translation comes into this, but which marketing genius came up with the idea of calling such a beautiful watch an Hobnail? I'm glad they didn't get the Morgan marketing job or I might be driving a Fat Clog Four

How about this for discerning Morgan driver?  I was so taken with the Meistersinger I went searching and found this one.  The same company also has this on special.

Some of their watches have a single hand. How do you you tell the time?

They all have an hour hand but no minute hand, the parchment dial above has hour hand and sweep second hand plus minutes and seconds ( chrono function) sub dials. You tell the time by counting off the five minute intervals between hours, ie black dial shows 6:44, Parchment dial 9:45 and 8 seconds ( I think...  )

Prefer my old Swatch myself. Best idea as less likely to accidently scratch the car. Bud __________ 2003 - 4/4
