Picked this one up the other day on a tip from Tazman.

Vollmer Master Flieger Chronometer
43.2mm x 11.3mm satin SS case
COSC 2824
Sapphire crystal
Exhibition caseback

It came on a alligator strap which is a little on the short side for me, so I'm wearing it on a rubber strap until I see the WatchPrince. Its got great lume but no idea what type. Runs as accurately as you would expext a chronometer. Thanks Tazman for the heads up.

Very sweet Mark, i had a Vollmer and in no way does the cost reflect the build quality! Great piece that i'm sure you will enjoy, and you're much smarter than me so you want have to worry about flipping it and regretting it later! Vollmer Master Flieger Chronometer 46145

Very Nice Mark! Did you pick this up from the Watchseller? He has had some awesome deals lately. The size is really nice for this style!

Oh NICE one Mark !!! Vollmer Master Flieger Chronometer 46145 ..Could this watch be ANY better looking
or cooler ?! ..DEFINITELY don't think so ! Very Happy It's awesome that you
were able to pick one of these up. Knew it looked like some of them
were dissappearing really quickly over at Watchseller, and this one
here looks like it's proud to be on your wrist now. This is a REAL
stunner sir, and I can't believe the whole look of it to be honest.
The case-shape alone is worth a second, third, fourth, etc look ! cyclops
It has a very refined style which I'm not sure we get to experience
on many watches. Seems like the edges are EXTRA smooth from
what I can see in your EXCELLENT pics. Vollmer looks as if they
take extra care in paying attention to the details and quality, that
is for sure. The texture of that steel must be something to see
in person, and I'm sure it feels INCREDIBLE on the wrist as well.
The satin finish is something to behold also. Really looks sharp !!! Smile
That color is GREAT too, and almost seems to have the look of being
bead blasted. It's REALLY nice Mark ! ..Even the way in which those
lugs are shaped, as well as how they catch your eye with THEIR
finish is astounding. Again it's an attention to detail, along with a
different twist on a cool aviation theme, that makes this watch SO
NICE in my opinion. All you have to notice is the crown, and you
know this is a different kind of watch. Not only is it BIG and BOLD
like you would expect, but the shape, along with textured feel
is at a different level. AMAZING ! ..I think the dial has a familiar
yet unique take on the aviation theme as well. The numbers all
the way around the dial is fantastic, but so are the neat markings,
along with that excellent TRIANGLE there. Also like the hand style
on the Vollmer. They are just classy enough, but add in a MEGA
cool feel for this MEGA cool watch. Cool ..Then later when everything
is glowing with that lume, it's very easy to see that nothing at all
is going to get by Vollmer with this one. Has to make you pretty
excited to have such high quality in so many different details of
your new watch. It's all finished off with the grand finale here..
..the MOVEMENT ! ..It's amazing to see such a spectacular looking
movement, and it just happens to be a COSC certified Chronometer
TOO ! Shocked ..Unbelievable Mark ! ..Even the alligator strap is GREAT,
and the rubber one matches up with the dial REALLY well also.
This is one of those watches that makes straps look GOOD ! cheers
..What a BEAUTIFUL WATCH ! ..Congratulations on grabbing this
one up ! ..I really hope you Enjoy !!!

Mega cool watch along with pics !
