Very nice collection Jim :dd: :like:

Thanks!  I need to get a "Family" photo of all my Swiss Champs.

 :climber:
How many have you got Jim :tu:

I need to count them since I have lost track.  I think somewhere between 8 and 12.
Very nice Jim :cheers:
Definitely need a pic of them  :popcorn:

I finally got around to taking a Swiss Champ "Family" photo.  I remember a post some time ago after I had acquired my 8th Swiss Champ.  The number 12 was in the back of my mind and now I realize that I was counting a SuperTimer that is no longer mine and a Champion (replaced by the Swiss Champ in the mid 1980s).  You can see the Champion pictured behind the row of Swiss Champs.  I have also included a photo of my former SuperTimer, which is a premium Swiss Champ with a Clock scale...

Actually, the scales are unique with the exception of three red scale Swiss Champs (the 4th red one is actually a Champion).  I have the original model that replaced the Champion and that needs to remain original.  Of the other two, one is new/unused and the other is used/excellent condition.  I will keep the new one in a box and use the remaining red scale model when the occasion arises.  The rest of my SCs have a variety of scales, specifically Cobalt blue, black, hardwood, emerald, saphire, white and camo.  I had planned to remove the "Daily driver" red scale and replace with Ruby scales but might just get another SC and put Ruby scales on it.

I saw one last week when I bought my Wave+  :tu:

Happy Swiss Champ Sunday Everyone!

I'm still involved in the Chuck Yeager Challenge and using the Executive exclusively.  Since one of my challenge days featured using the Executive to cut some paracord for this cobalt blue Swiss Champ, I thought that it would be appropriate to feature for today's Swiss Champ Sunday...
