That has got to be the best watch display ("shrine" ) I've seen! Thought the straps were impressive but that's out of the park!
thanks that's my Winder shrine[emoji1] I'm a little sick w/ this disease

Too cool and thanks for sharing. Is there a story with the helmet or "just to awesome" not to buy? Nice touch with the yard as well' kinda sorta brings back some foggy memories, I think

I sold one of these last year and regretted it almost immediately. Found a very nice one that was priced well recently and jumped on it. 😁

Black dial Excelsior Park EP4 chronograph bought yesterday.
In need of some TLC, but a very honest looking watch IMO. 😀
Ongoing service holds some promise😀

No doubt the big ass bong on the shelf above the helmet can be useful in treating the symptoms...

it's not a bong it's a yard glass for drinking beer
I used to be serious about my drinking

This mornig arrived, a 2892-1SC with a caliber 284 no. 15136343 from around 1956. Equipped it with a Hirsch James strap, silver Omega buckle.

New crown (clover) is already ordered. I'm going to present this watch in a few days a bit more detailed...

Picked this up today from the original owner purchased new in 1983. A 145.022-78 with the original box, paperwork, and sales receipt. Time to get the Polywatch out and it should be good to go.

I showed it to my wife and she said "you guys are so cute" That was followed by "I bet his wife has a helluva shoe closet"
Women!

I've never had one of these smaller (32 mm) American-made military watches, though I've always thought they were neat. This has the hacking cal. 10BNCH 17 jewel movement and dates from the Korean War-era. Seems to be in nicer condition than many I've seen.
