Rap,
I like your watch MUCH better than the one I posted, fewer complications, better layout and the date at 4:00 is way cool...wear it in good health!
I can't see the possibility of getting the Motochron off the ground but if you do I'm in...

My guess is we will never be able to reach the number required. I'll monitor this thread from time to time, but I wouldn't bother monochron unless I though we were anywhere near close enough....unless someone wins the lottery and want to buy 80 of these suckers.

I believe the quantity is 100, there are easily 20 who would plunk down their dollars here..the rest are "unknown"....
Dying to hear how they respond.

Don,
I'm pretty sure that Laco Valencia Time Center and Motochron are not the same complany. I could be wrong of course.

plenty of custom alternatives to the motochron; priced from $175 to $55 each...or $1200 on a movado luno

More fun to have unobtainium watch or factory replica...I don't think this will ever go anywhere, but would be happily surprised if it did.
I have my eye on a couple of other vintage watches <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/smile.png" class="smilie" alt="" />
