I had been looking for a nice Type 21 at an honest price for quite some time now, and this just came into my possession today. I couldn't be happier, it is spectacularly good looking and a great military watch, all original. Have some family in Besan莽on so I have a little connection with it right away

Very nice example, well done! 馃憤

The 20/21s are among my favorites.

I've been on the hunt for a vintage JLC Memovox for awhile. I finally found one in good condition at a good price. I can't wait for it to get here.

Couldn't resist this little beauty in great shape and just serviced. On OEM strap and deployant. Just arrived today. Got it with the intent of giving it to my son when he gets married. But ..... that's a few months out ...... so I'll get some time to wear it. [emoji15]

Following up on my last post. The watch came in from Serbia. Great packing although it did come with a potent cigarette smell. It is as I had hoped: in excellent unpolished condition. Very happy!
Just out of curiosity... because I don't know UG all that well. Is the Sun-seconds hand original? It looks a little out of place/dark in respect to the rest of the dial

Honestly, I have no idea. It didn't stick out for me until you mentionned it. I had never seen this UG and that's why I jumped on it. UG 3 handers are not documented and there are a lot of examples out there. Maybe someone else will enlighten us.

The stack o' Carreras continues to grow. And I'm fine with that.
Amazingly clean dial, I love it! 馃グ

Which reference is it? Gotta add this one to the list...

Thanks !
I had a hard time finding one in all original condition (or so it seems) for what is to me an honest price. It is absolutely stunning and I don't really see myself letting it go 馃槈

It was an accident! I promise!



Honestly didn't think I'd win it... Will give it a shot, if it doesn't feel right, it will be on a sales forum near you soon 馃榾
