Boctok Attache 7211 S. 40010 Famous for their Komandirskie and Amfibia watches, this large, heavy rectangular, Art Deco dress watch was created by Boctok in 2003 and won a European design award. Powered by a Boctok 31 jewel 2416B automatic with an unusual 19.8 kbph (2.75Hz) beat rate, halfway between a 18kbph (2.5Hz) standard beat, and 21.6kbph (3Hz) mid-beat. Leave it to the Russkis to be different. Very rectangular, John!  How is the crown action on that? Less wobbly than the Amfibia? I am back, I hope. Been sick the past month. In the past 20 days I've lost 27 pounds. I've seen the doctors, and they checked everything. I'm quite healthy, especially for a fat guy with stage 4 cancer. Oncologist says it might be the chemo that's doing it. So I'm on a break from that. I am feeling better now. The nausea is gone, and I ate real food today! I was living on Ensure for a few days because I couldn't get anything else down. Islander diver today. I loooove this yellow! So glad I went with my gut.  Great to see you again big guy! Sorry to hear about your wet loss regimen though. I'm thinking there are more preferable ways but it's not like you have much of a choice, eh? I'm happy to hear you have emerged with a good appetite and yet another great watch! Go easy on the Cheetos  |

Long Island has some great stuff under their own branding. Marc has a good feel for what watch geeks want . . . he is one. No wobbly crown on the Attache (doesn't screw down). Very firm and positive action. I've got the Radio Operator and know all to well of what you speak - those feel like they're about to fall off the stem. Glad you're feeling better! Yeah . . . the disease really sucks. The treatment sucks almost as much. Keep doing what you need to do. Thanks, John. I figured the wobbly crown was just part of the water resistance. I remember hearing that before. Cancer sucks. But I'm happy I'm still going pretty strong after almost 6 years. |

I am however glad there has been improvement. Oh, and great yellow dial  Thanks, Marcel! I love this dial. You really need to see it in person to appreciate the color. I'm still improving, so that's great. |

Good news, then If the yellow is anything like my Breitling, I have a good idea what you mean  |
