It's Friday and I have gone 2 days without a watch purchase.

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. 👍

This one, been looking for sometime and @Darlinboy suddenly snatched one and I was like "where did he find it", then @LouS came with the link to all the rainbows on eBay and voila!
I almost bought that one 👍

A few days ago but both came in today. Very surprised with the condition of the Titus and that dial on the Zodiac, wow! Now if I could only get the back off.

EDIT: Just got a message from the seller saying he found a Titus box that should have come with the watch but he forgot to send it. That's a nice surprise.
Way to go... Love both 🥰👍👍

Yeah, I hate that, too.

But a local fellow watch idiot came through for me yesterday and sold me his Nomos 😁... pics at 7...

Delivered today from @kyle L
Notified about delivery at the start of my 500km trip back home.
It was then a loooooong afternoon, I can confirm that impatience slows down hands on my watch.
Watch is back to its original country of delivery
Congrats, really like this one, it was quite tempting 😀

Me too! 😁

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. 😁

Hopefully you will be as honorable some day....

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]
