Just a single package arrived today... 😗



As you can see, every single watch was packed into its separate pocket 😁

A fun exercise to open each one individually...

Good lord, that looks like the most fun unboxing ever! 👍
While the IWC is, by far, the most valuable in the lot, the one I was most bowled over by was the central seconds Mido Multifort - it is simply exquisite!
That is gorgeous, the case looks extra sharp. 🥰

Cheers, it really is! Also fun to see how it resembles my Multi-Centerchrono:



More than a bit of family resemblance there!

The research I've done seem to confirm them as correct (both type and length), but I am not certain.

Stumbled across the picture below by our very own @LouS - naturally the answer to my question was found on OF 😀

Never know this model existed and was surprised when got it in hands. Not in perfect condition but still good example. My neovintage diver quartz collection is slowly growing.......

That bezel is amazing! Lovely lume triangle, too.

Totally out of line with the rest of my collection but I had to own this one and make sure it got the care and attention it deserves ... I probably won't have it for long ... although I could keep this and sell my VC? From 1948, gold capped lugs and bezel with a stainless steel case the body of the watch is flawless. The crown, I'm not at all sure of although the only other photograph I've found so far of this reference looks remarkably similar. The glass has some deep crazing which spoils the view of the dial but the dial has aged really nicely. Movement is a little belter. I reckon one of the very first 342s.

Here she is:

Like @Dre I’ve also been getting some UG stuff. I’ve always wanted some of these UG keys and I was offered this 15 piece set.

I went cheap. 5 bucks at the thrift shop. Manual wind, 2 hours on the wrist and keeping time. It looks nice, but I know it isn't worth much more than I paid. Still fun though and I scratched that itch for today. Please don't tell me I am the only one who does this. LOL

5 bucks is great. I do it all too often for much more than that. Love the linen dial.

Thank you, I love it too and this morning I saw 2 Omegas listed on eBay with similar dials. I am afraid an "upgrade" is only a short time away. It really is a sickness. LOL
