    You made me laugh.
    You've been very busy with the incoming and the outgoing on the rest of the days. ;) Some nice pieces, too. :thumbsup:

    Just to show off the new entry in my collection, here's a pic:

    1958 Omega Constellation ref. 2852 cal. 505. Gold-capped - what else??

    Needs a bit of TLC, but will end up looking great, I'm sure :)

    This one is one is on its way from London. Thanks to Cookie Monster Lizard Guy (Chris, a/k/a Tyrantlizardrex) for honoring my dibs. I can't wait to have it on the wrist, and he was a champ to deal with.

    Looks nice. You feed 'em a few flies or grasshoppers and they will sell you what ever you want. Just gotta hit at renovation time. :D

    Got this little Seamaster Automatic last week. The case and back have been polished and I just had to save it before anything else was done. Will probably need another case back at some point:(

    It came on a 1067 bracelet with 532 end links. Unfortunately some of the links have also been raped but it's nice overall.

    My other linen dial now has a brother from another mother

    Just back from my watch maker! My watchco 165.024 is a favorite, so wearable and great for a day at the beach with the kids. When a 166.073 NOS case popped up on eBay I pounced and set about a build with a donor 565 and new bezel/dial/hands. Finally complete [emoji898][emoji3]
