    Aloha all! 

    Honolulu to San Francisco (5 hours) and San Francisco to Beijing (12 hours) - What a long haul! At least United Airlines had some free watch magazines on the plane.

    Shing -

    You are correct - it's the Bucherer Big Pilot Perpetual!

    -Tracy

    PS: I thought that you were going to guess that it was a twin sub-dial Big Pilot since everyone has been going crazy over the twin sub-dial DFB Big Pilot recently.

    Tracy,
    I must assume you got a great airfare deal. Otherwise, why would you triple your flying time?

    Really adding up those frequent flyer miles = Elite Status and more free tickets.
    LOL.

    Tracy enjoy your trip and say hi to SC for me.

    @SC & Tracy:
    Best wishes & safe travels, hope you'll enjoy yourselves and have a horological feast in Beijing! Are you, by any chance, taking your new flight jackets along for the ride? ;-)
