    I got an email yesterday from someone who bought my old Citizen(!) watches that he was going to be in my country for business and wanted to know if I wanted to have dinner and drinks while sharing each other's watches. He told me he would bring anything from his collection that I wanted to see. It quickly became a UG party.

    Pictures don't do the watches justice though as the lighting in the resto wasn't watch friendly.

    Here are his stuff:

    Adding mine (which brought down the average prices of the watches [emoji12] ) :

    Divers:

    Black dials:

    Everything - 4 Tri-Compaxes, 2 Polerouter Subs, 2 Polerouter Dates, 2 Cal. 262s, 1 Compax and 1 Uni-Compax:

    Not bad for my first GTG.

    That was one of my faves (even if one of the subdial hands is wrong)

    You're right! I completely missed that....and illustrates why I am NOT an impulse buyer or any kind.

    He also brought this. This was the only non-UG watch I asked him to bring

    Very nice. I'm pleased to see that there is some other bugger on here with a Wilhelmina.
