Love to see them

 

Won this with a lowish bid. Meant to match it with an incoming , but din realise it came with 24mm end links! Any idea what watch this came with originally?

 

Something like this?

Bad News: Kitty is starved to near death.
Good News: These are on the way "home"!

Excelsior Park Cal 42 (Only "non round" chronograph caliber ever made?)
This one is even a mono-pusher variant that I have not seen too often!



Another Excelsior Park caliber 40-68 (Gallet branded):


And a 18K Longines ref 3418 cal 343:

Uncertain about the originality of the hands of the Longines? Anyone??

Not too bad for a Wednesday!

 

Not a bad day indeed!

 

Amazing dial on that one, very nice catch!

Please put me on the DIBs list!

DUGENA Camaro style Val.7734
From the Hinterland. With Original bracelet

 

Not a moonwatch but an early ( or even the first) Schumacher.

 

This just arrived from the other side of the world in only 3 days!

Lots of pluses with this one:

I love the size (38mm),

I love the history,

my teenage daughter even loves the look (I better keep it locked away!),

and the Geiger counter goes CRAZY with it (750 cpm)! ... No watch sniffing/licking on this one...

Love this one Steed! Looks awesome on the bracelet. I've been looking for one just like this which means...DIBS. Please put me first on the list.

 

Thanks!
