As our British friends say, I am chuffed!

Received two nice pieces today, a Seamaster bumper cal. 354 (2557-6) and a Dynamic 3 date (5200.50).

The Seamaster arrived from Viet Nam and when I opened the package and looked at the watch for the first time I noticed it was almost exactly on time! I took this as a very good omen. It's in great condition; some radium has fallen off the minute hand. Omega buckle and leather band - the band is fairly recent the buckle maybe from the period.

The Dynamic is very close to mint, case, crystal and bracelet. On opening it's package it was only an hour slow. However it arrived within 3 days of purchase so there's a chance if it was wound and set by the seller when it was shipped it could have been close. The Seamaster was just an amazing coincidence. I set the Dynamic from my computer, I have not touched the Seamaster...

Picked up this Mathey-Tissot V72 Inverse Panda - the more interesting (IMO) and rarer cousin of the Autavia 2446C. All original and and in great condition... except that the chronograph doesn't work. Off to service it is!

I like deployants. Not sure why this one costs more than a decent used car, though. But I like deployants, so I had to get this for the Lange 1.

Just picked this up from a house clearance in the old DDR. Came with period a jeweller box and guarantee slip from 1959. Referred to as: 9104/Pa automatic...can't find out a thing about it, not even a single Lemania Tonneau pic of this type on google images.....But I like and it's going in the collection!

I also bought this. I am moderately afraid to open it. Not sure why I bought it, but I thought it might be useful and I have more money than brains. Should I return it?

Bought some of this to go with it (bought some green, too):

And some felt and cotton thingies.

New Molequin Buffalo Hide shoes for the Jimmy Clarke ... long overdue.

Nice strap, I particularly like the colour. Do you mind sharing where you bought it from

I didn't. It came with a watch I recently purchased. They have a website though.
