I haven't seen this before. I love the textured dial! AND the way the bracelet sits flat. I am in love.

 

Congratulations...and welcome

 

Wonderful

 

Nice

 

Loverly watch...enjoy it

 

Today's new watch

 

Friday trio crackers and milk for dinner this weekend...

 

Wow! That Lemania is amazing! Congratulations!

 

Yes I was a lucky boy! Will look good next to the little brother in the watch box https://mitka.co.uk/2017/02/21/service-lemania-calibre-2510/... I will probably find time to service this one next week

 

Well done yourself picking up one of the best looking Rolex watches out there..

 

Now that's a good combo! The movement looks good. The dial certainly has a lot of signs of aging. Are you going to do anything with the dial or leave it be?

 

It's a little better under the crystal I will leave it as it's a fairly rare French market dial..

 

I came across a Memomatic that I couldn't let go. Crown is missing. Movement needs service. But the dial is pretty good.

 

IWC ref 1819 cal. 854B. Threw it on a olive green reindeer FinWatchStrap ..
Love the brushed retro pillow case ..

 

Just picked this one up today. Really excited about it..love everything about this watch!

 

My Lemania WWW arrived after three months of snail mail, next to its very similar cousin the Record

 

From @Dre to @bgrisso to me. I feel fortunate to have had the chance to pick this up.

 

Build a watch

Buy a NOS Omega Genéve case with original dial, glass, crown, hands and movement holder. Went so cheap at auction I think the seller had a bad day.
Add a cal. 601 from the spare part box, a service, remove the purple stuff and a new gasket (the old one had gone to melt down goop). Add an old Omega Corfam racing strap and you have a nice cheap for fun watch (not selling, I know its a franken )
