I really like this watch.

It's very similar to the Secometer, isn't it?:confused1:
The dial is identical to the Secometer, and the movement is the same (987S).
Boy I've learned alot in a short amount of time about vintage Hams! (well, it could have been some luck to...:blushing:)

Anyway, the Secometer is still my favorite of the three. I like the fancier case.
