路Just picked up my first spur of the moment purchase, a Titus Calypsomatic 7985. IMO, under appreciated and under valued (though this seems to be changing as of late). ~38 mm, gilt/glossy dial, nice yellow patina, no crown guards, 8 mm big crown, roulette (red/blue) date wheel, well constructed bracelet. Next to my gilt Sub it looks like a 'brother from another mother,' as they say.

路Seiko 8223-5010 Type ii serial says it is from 1989, but all other sources I have seen say the production of type iis ended in 84'. Either way liking the vibes will be my third Seiko. Will put a perlon strap on it most likely. A another auction same watch(8223-5010)but 700$?

路Bought that JR04 off eBay (and not for $25k mind you!) 
Some watches arrive and you kind of need a few hours / days to really connect with them.... this is not one of those. This is an immediate "wow, this is cool" - frankly, I'm disappointed I didn't go hunting for one a couple years ago!
On top of that the Yankees just retook first place in their division, and the Chinese food I ordered got here in record time.

To quote @aap last time I used the "Good day" reference.

"watchmakers" and I use the term loosely because the quality is not what you'd want for a professional but for me to swap bands and get backs off and batteries it's fine.

路Just so you can imagine my face, the second box that I opened contains the full (25 volume) collection of the Works of Sir Walter Scott. Abebooks has an incomplete set up for sale at the moment, asking 拢110. The spines on mine need consolidating as there's some red rot but I have a bookbinder I use for rare books and I think these might be worth saving. There's also a first edition of Huxley's Art of Seeing (1942) and so far I'm up to 7 Kiplings, 3 Thomas Hardys and 7 that I've put aside as "interesting" ... just 11 more boxes to go.
OT for a moment, but Cellugel is what you want for the red rot, stabilises it and doesn't darken the leather. It's what book conservators use.
