thanks - it was fun and I might do a few more versions just for kicks....maybe a gift or two along the way
Got this at the fleamarket. Nothing fancy, but a cool radium gilt dial. Came on a nice open end 18mm strap that was imo worth alone the 10€ i paid
Look what arrived in the post this morning . A Timex Marlin . First impressions, great value , nice self wind , intresting dial colour shimmer and well boxed . While not a reproductive of the original a nice to have addition to any collection IMO.
Another Rotary Maximus for my collection. Bought as an eBay gamble from an add with awful photos. Imagine my delight when it turned up and was a solid 9k gold Dennison case! Beautiful gilt Revue movement tested at my watchmakers and running perfectly.
It's always a great afternoon when two watches arrive First, a fantastic Longines courtesy of @WhatYourWatchSay, and an Omega at a price I just couldn't pass up. The Longines is definitely staying but the Omega has me wanting a similar one in stainless steel, as the integrated bracelet is just oh so comfy...
Heuer Stopwatch circa 1970 Amazing untouched movement. Sold as not working. Works perfectly. It was just fully wound, so the crown would not turn. This may be the start of something bad.
