How would you like the PanAm to look?

I owned a 1969 Glycine Airman STT Pumpkin a few years back. I sold the watch without having taken a pic of the backside. Luckily, I found a pic of an SST's back side on the 'net.

One thing puzzles me, though:

Wayne - Grenchen - Breda - Kingston - Key West

How did you come up with 'Breda'? I know 'Breda' as a small town in the South of The Netherlands, near the Belgian border. An old town, famous for it's beautiful Market Square and our Royal Dutch Military Academy. The town centre is loaded with pubs and bars. Nice place to be. Even better when it's Mardigrass (Called 'Carnaval' overhere).

From this: http://www.watchuseek.com/site/privacy.htm

Since this watch is being formed on WUS, I thought it might be appropriate to include Watchuseek's place of business. Also, along with Grenchen it adds an extra bit of international flair to a list that potentially includes the fine cities of Wayne, PA and Key West, FL.

It's all clear to me now! Thanks!

For the case back, how about a engraved (or relief) 3/4 profile of a 707? Such an image would be both simple and evocative. Perhaps the name of the watch or its serial number could go on the fuselage (where Boeing 707 is in the picture)...I've got to learn Photoshop.

Is there a wait list on this watch? I would like to sign up for it if so.

Not yet. I think Bill's trying to feel out the potential popularity of this project as well as what design details those of us who are interested would like to see in the watch.

So, long story short, you've come along just in time: early enough to get on the list when it does come out!

I missed that! If it makes a difference, my plane is pointing in the other direction!

Another name popped into my head based on PAN AM history.

The Pan Am frequent flyer club was called "New Horizons Club".

I threw out Greenwich before, but you could also build off the of Pan Am Club name:
MKII - Horizon(s)
MKII - New Horizons
MKII - Horizon GMT

Just a random thought.

I kinda like Horizon. The MKII Horizon - it fits!
