    Glad I could enable you without knowing! You'll love it, such a great watch at that price. I would highly recommend a sailcloth strap for wet areas as well!

    Picked this up locally today for $20. :)
    It needs a cleaning as I bought from the original owners family member, it has never been cleaned or serviced.
    I seen it listed on a local site and it was only minutes from my place and I was happy to have bought the watch. I don't know anything about it yet but plan on keeping it.:D IMG_6704.JPG IMG_6706.JPG IMG_6707.JPG IMG_6708.JPG IMG_6709.JPG

    Bear in mind that I had to import this from the US. I can't believe that there's no one selling this sort of thing here in the UK.or in the wider EU.

    It holds 12, so you'll only need 8.3 (or more) :p

    Timefactors did a cool reissue of this one. Lovely watch. What is the case diameter? I thought it was quite small, maybe 31mm?

    Either way great pick up and I will call dibs, if I may.

    Hi Maganator,
    Timefactors done a great job on the watch, That must have been a earlier version of my watch as it has Great Britain on the dial and mine has Made in England.
    The watch is approximately 29mm and 30.50mm with the crown. If I decide to sell it later down the road you have first dibs.:)
    Thanks and best regards

    While I was in Hong Kong a week ago, I visited a favorite spot, and came away with this one, an early (40's) Seiko:

    Better pics to come for this unusual 'bronzed' dial when I get it back from service...

    35mm automatic.

    These are not all that common, so no surprise if you haven't seen one, unless you mean Lemania in general. This will be a nice addition to my other two:

    Yes, from Modest Proposal. Your dibs is duly noted!
