Sporting a new toad strap from Black Forest.

 

The moon was beautiful last night, so I had to go with this today:



Those are tritium tubes on the moon; a nice yellow glow in the night

 

Today, two watches. The Certina from a day or two ago, and this one. Calibre 1020, early to mid 1970s. Once in a while, a watch finds its way to you without your having to look for it. This was a lucky find.

 

Newly arrived... HAGW All!

So nice Adam, and the fact that's its an heirloom makes it even better!

 

Not only it's beautiful, it's a 5512 and most importantly it's my birth year watch. It's the Dream Trifecta of a collector

 

Fair question. The watch has been inspected by rolex experts and an insurance that gave me the appraisal certification. Too important a buy for me not to get it right. As per them:

Dial, hands, case and movement all original and untouched.

Bracelet not Original.

Bezel they can't tell. It is the right bezel for the 4 line non gilt 5512 but it may be a replacement from circa 75 to 77. That said it may also be Original to the watch as its a 1971, so undetermined. Even of replaced by an accurate bezel I decided I was ok with it as it's a birth year watch and I have a disc replacement of my own in my back.

 

Plenty of love from me

 

Saturday Night Fever...

 

That's effing gorgeous!

 

Early bird special

 

Caught the clouds in the crystal.

 

Still in Beijing with this one and the weather is still bright bluesky

 

You're fortunate to even see the sky there most days, enjoy!
