    In my hunt for the really quirky (I sometimes find enjoyment in that) I stumbled across this weird thing:

    No Subdials? But two pushers??
    ::confused2::
    Fired of a lowball offer, and behold this is what my mailman brought me!
    35mm stainless steel case. Close to unworn condition.
    As I had NO idea as to what movement to expect inside, I was pleasantly surprised to find the rarely seen ETA1168 when I popped the back.
    Looking well, but in need of a new mainspring.
    Now to how this thing works:
    ETA-1168.jpg
    I think that is rather cool!

    I think for watches like this, the rule should be you can only put in a DIBS if you have more that 1000 posts. :D

    I also think I'm too far down on the current list to even be in the running. :(
