Not a watch, but quite an early catalogue from 1952 with some great pictures of some interesting references

 

If I wasn't a fan, I wouldn't have made the connection.

 

I think Michael commented on Larry probably not being a fan, not that he himself wasn't one


@Larry S - In the "Fawlty Towers" series, one of the characters is a waiter from Spain named Manuel... He's from Barcelona. A bit of European cultural history, that is

 

@ConElPueblo ...Huge Python fan... Faulty Towers was something I watched with my dad years ago. Don’t remember many of the bits. Will have to get it from the library. But.... I’ve been blessed to spend quite a bit of time in Barca....I adore the place ... folks there don’t seem like Manuel. Hmmm

 

Duh!!!!!!

 

Was waffling a bit ... cream panda, cream silver panda, black and silver ... back to digging blue gilt and then the Fedex e mail arrived ... these guys are fast.

 

This ratty old thing

 

19 mm w/o crown and pendant .

What I bought:


A minute of polywatch and a strap change later:

 

Sinn 104 white dial

 

That looks good. I've never seen a countdown bezel. Is it made with a specific sport or activity in mind?

 

Congrats! Was hoping someone here got it!

 

Just picked up this little trinket

 

Seller's pics.

Dimensions will be known to @NT931 and @STANDY

 

Got this in the mail today. Pleasantly surprised at how new it looks and seems to be accurate after a two hour run test.
Its remarkably light. Nice old school cross hair sub dial.
Very neat if sparse dial. I've found zero information on this one so far. I'm figuring its a low end Swiss pin lever, what was once called a "Dollar watch".
Size wise I'd place this in the Boy's Watch category.

 

Sweet! Congrats!

 

New to the forums, watch is new to me.

 

Dibs !
