Traded actually, for a Breitling, but did top up so guess it qualifies as a buy

Lemania 1341 hands for my project Tissot Navigator. It's the last piece in a long and increasingly costly lesson in restoration. Will be excited to have the watch back in a few months and looking great.

Last minute update: the seller will not ship my watch because he found out that the caseback had been damaged by a previous watch maker.
He will get it fixed by a jeweler.
I will keep you posted.

Update: My Zenith 146HP arrived in the mail this morning.
It will receive some gentle cleaning, but I am a very happy collector!😀
A big bonus was also the signed buckle! 😁

37mm of pure chronograph delicacy!

1972 Grand Seiko 6146-8050 Hi-Beat with grey dial. Been looking for one for some time.. Gonna send it for servicing and light polishing plus change the crystal to a NOS one. Think it'll look great..😁

Bought a few weeks a go as a gift for Mrs A, following a recent thread on the "Dynamic" I mentioned I hadn't seen her wearing it much lately. Confession time she has not taken to it 😀 so now in my watch box.

Anyone else see the case has a military bearing ?

Why do I suspect this is all still going to cost me dearly 🤔
