    Me either, I only drove there once when I had to visit the old General Motors plant, Framingham was a nightmare. Boston, where I flew into was not better either. Boston was the only place I had run into with an exit in a tunnel !

    Good one there Bob, Mido is a good Watch, and powerwind is one that is not all that common. I think it would look better though on a nice leather strap.

    Briefcase Style

    I have had both and prefer the flap over. Simple closure mechanism on the flap over in most cases which adds to overall robustness. Period correctness ? I think both types have been around for a long time, so it is a matter of personal choice.
