Hi and welcome JL, that's a great condition Frecce Tricolore, I've seen a few floating on the bay and would like one myself at some stage, although there's a few to get through first I think.

My wife prefers white dialled watches, so it was either this, a Roamer 5100 or the plain Eberhard...we'll see...

Anyway, thanks for posting,
Andy

Welcome, and a lovely addition.

It looks like this Frecce (by DPW or North Eagles?) has been quietened a little, with what appears to be a finely blasted case and a brushed bezel.

It looks all the better for it.

I notice that the indices are turning a nice yellow too.

These really are a lovely little watch, and it is nice to see my old AMSI once again Menno.

Dave

This watch looks strangely familiar to me...



And I agree that the finish on yours is unusual. All DPW Chrono Pilot models I've seen had a case with a combination of brushed and polished finish.
