We featured one in the replica Bvlgari watch past here where we gave you the deets on its background and what makes it so special, so for that info click on the link above.Today we are just going to talk about the watch itself, the one we've found.This watch is a 1950 IWC Mark XI Anti-Magnetic military piece that is in mint condition.Everything on this watch is completely original and it is signed in all the right places.It does feature the military engravings on the case back, in addition the standard military arrow and circled T (for tritium) on the face.

Chris Plesko is, admirably, doing everything in his power to dodge an asterisk as he charges at new single speed records.

The GDR does not allow replica Zenith watches cell phones. Kent Peterson holds the border-to-border GDR single speed record, set in 2005, the record Chris is now ahead of as he rides through northern New Mexico. In order to not call a new record into question, Chris is not carrying a cell phone and has even eschewed using others cell phones offered to him along the route.
