Shanghai Mil ReIssue

[Martin_B]

A few weeks ago, one of our fellow members scored a number of the Shanghai Re Issues, and made them available to people who are not so lucky to live in Shanghai. After some thinking I decided that the chances of ever getting one of these will be very small if I do not order it now. So I did, and today it was delivered.

I quickly made some pics, so I could show it here:














Alf, alias Alfanator, Thanks a lot!

Regards,

Martin

Martin, your photos are wonderful!!!

They make me drool big-time and the courier phoned me Friday saying mine will be delivered today as well so it's hard to concentrate on anything else

Congrats, friend!!

It has a screw down crown, but hasn't any markings indicating water resistance. Personally, I would not dare to swim with it....

Very, very nice! I'm trying to be good at the moment but pics like that don't help at all!

I just got mine too!!!! The pictures looks stunning! I don't need to post any more pics.

Thanks Alf to make it happen!

Great pics Martin!

Flori. I swim with mine and have left it at the bottom of the pool for 45 mins, no problems. I also live within 30 mins of the factory if it fails, so take it with a grain of salt and do so at your own risk

I am also waiting for mine with anticipation! Thanks again Alfred for facilitating the sale! Sure wish I was in Shanghai to check out the Expo!

Cool! Do you have any archive pics/info links of the watch it's a reissue of?

Here's my pix...mine arrived today as well.

Oh happy day!!!

...and an unexpected plus: the bracelet ain't heavy, but it's fine--I had it sized this afternoon and it's easily comfortable and seems very secure

It is a re-issue of this (from Joel Chan's wonderful Micmicmor website):

You guys are making me think that next time I am in Shanghai I will have to pick one up

Is there ever an end to this hobby

More Pics is always better, don't be shy!

Wow, great pics Ron!

I was also impressed by the light but solid feel of the bracelet. I usually take them off right away, but this one just might stay on

How is the lume?

When I went to bed yesterday, they showed pretty well in a dark room. But by no means SuperLuminova.

Thanks Martin, but your pics were so good I almost didn't bother, too

Then I thought....nah...(just like you say) more pics is always better!

And, as for me, the bracelet is gonna stay--unlike many stock bracelets. this one's a keeper. I've worn it for a few hours and I just plain like it.

A very smart looking watch. Excellent score.
