I've been itching for one of these too. There was a very nice one in Japan, but someone beat me to it.

That one looks pretty good...hope it holds up in person.

That might have been me. This one is coming from Japan.

That looks really sharp. I always thought the 70s watches were a bit dated looking (OK, I know that sounds stupid coming from a vintage collector - age and preference) but the more of them I see/buy, the more I like them.

Nice catch.

Thanks Stewart! ... I hear what you are saying. For example if I was to go for a Connie(which I will get around to) I would not buy a 70s model. They are awful. I would go for the Classic 50/60s models. But I agree there are some terrible designs from the 70s era. I think the watch world was a bit here & there at the time. However "Sometimes" they came up with real gems!

No patience, couldn't wait 'till I got home so attempted a little crystal polishing. Hopefully some potential.

You got to give this forum a bit more credit, no one is going to flame you.

Don't be so sure about that. 😁

surprise personalization. This is pretty cool, even for a jaded and cynical watch jockey...
