A shot to express a warm welcome to the Captain’s 1972 🎉🎊🎈

The recent WS came with the revelation that Captain Scarlet added a 1972 PdlF to his collection, so here goes another one in a sign of welcome 😊 All others, across generations also warmly welcome to pitch in 👍🏻🤞🏻

For me - and I am highly biased - one of the cooler dress watches out there 👔

Awesome, really awesome. There is no other watch like the Prestige de la France!
