Apparently my old QANTAS black face was not a fake ............ very very reasonable price, had it best part of 20 years, lovely timekeeping, day/date, with second hand, everything a retired bloke no longer needs.
I remember buying it on a flight Heathrow to Singapore, back in the days when a polite letter to the Captain ["I am/was a MetMan and I would like to see the Southern Cross from the flight deck] gained access up front.
"Would your wife like to join you?"
It was a bit crowded [747 I think] but I felt sufficiently temporarily in love with QANTAS to buy the watch and never regretted it.
The Rolex meanwhile sits in the sock drawer waiting for my son to inherit it.
