    Very impressive collection of Zodiacs - have a GMT and a couple Sea Wolf's....none as good as yours. Congrats on the World Time.

    Thanks @bigdubnick
    A small, but fun, collection, and I'm really annoying them!

    Moratorium on watch purchases but accessories are surely allowed ::confused2::

    An offering from "Revo" on M.W.R. perhaps a bold choice for the 300 ?

    I did a lot of work on sales automation for their products back in the 90s - fantastic technology and specification on their machines and it's so nice to have an English company at the leading edge of engineering manufacturing in this day and age. Imagine how rugged a JCB chronograph would be; (though I'd probably resent it being available only in that yellow).

    My quest for Lemania watches continues... :)
    Smallish at 32mm, but I think it will clean up very nicely. The dial is really something, and in great condition for a late 1940s/early 50s(?) watch!

    Something alarming (though actually not bought today very pressed for time). A 38mm 14kt YG Vulcain Alarm. Now I need a strap.

    Didn't expect to be posting in this thread again so soon, but I couldn't help myself. Recently joined the Rolex owner club. I'll definitely be posting more info and pictures on this one soon. But for now..

    It has finally landed. ::love::::love::
    Will move on for a spa treatment. Crystal needs to be replaced and movement cleaned and oiled for sure.

    The cool thing to me is that the case back confirms my suspicion it is an early "waterproof" design by IWC with a so called "hermet" case.
    These are not too common.
    Dedication inscription not too bad either, but I will not change my name to Yngve anytime soon:)
