My first tank watch: the Orient CEVAC002WY

Hard to imagine that after all these years, the Orient CEVAC002WY is my first tank watch. I have loads of diver's, pilot watches, mil-spec timepieces, but this is my very first tank watch. And quite a beauty it is:

It wasn't an impulse buy since I already spotted it a week or so ago, but since our first meeting, it was horological love at first sight. Classic clean lines, legible dial, and most of all - titanium.

And best of all, a great price: PHP3,300 (USD$78). It was an offer I just couldn't refuse.
