    Here's a pic of the Junkers GMT watch I bought from Chris of VTC a few years ago.
    Great watch. Called the "Iron Anne". Very reasonably priced.

    I'm out driving in my '65 Corvette today and got too much Sun reflection on the pic (the hazards of driving an open convertible on a beautiful sunny day!).
    I added a store pic of the watch in case you're interested in what it looks like. :)

    Thanks, I've owned it for about 15 years now.
    Here's a short video of me letting my flight instructor drive my Corvette one day (back in 2009).

    The 51-30 has been our best selling series for quite a while now.
    And the reliability has been great! I don't remember the last warranty we had to use.
    Nothing has been defective on the watches, crowns not falling off, pushers not having issues.
    Just a good, reliable BIG watch with style!
    Many options in regards to color combos now. I will post some different models.

    The first 2 are:

    RAW STEEL (roughed up look)
    $500

    NAVY (satin finish case and bracelet) Navy dial with Orange hands
    Very cool color combo! (looks almost blk in the pics, but's it Navy in person. Can't get the pic to get the right light to show the true color)
    $425
    I can offer an good Fchat discount, but I can't post the price.
    PM or Email for pricing
    [email protected]

    They are 51mm in diameter
    300m WR
    They are TANKS!
    Screw down caseback, crown, and pushers.

    Sorry I missed this post Alex.

    Those are the last two (now those are gone too) until the new batch arrives. We have about 100 coming in closer to the end of October. New releases :)

    Let me know when you get some more. His birthday is in Novemeber so that may make a good present. I might need to get myself a late birthday present as well.

    I saw the Blk/Blk one once. It was a great looking watch. Best of the bunch in my opinion.

    This is a nice watch that I got from Chris at VTC. Mondia with Carbon Fiber..Chris was even nice enough to throw in a spare watch band and after I got him to sharpen his pencil a little more on the price we came to a deal. It's a great watch and I'm very happy with it:)

    That watch would make any wrist look manly!

    Tempting, but just too damn small....
