    I bought this gold Longines a few months ago and finally got it back today (I'm still looking for a new crystal)
    The lizard strap was hand made and it arrived Saturday from Vietnam .
    I have several black strapped watches and several brown strapped watches, I wanted something a little more funky.
    Opinions?

    It has been a slow year for me. I've sold more than I've bought, and before this week, I had only two new arrivals. But this week was a big one, with two fantastic vintage divers from the 1970s. A military-issued Benrus Type 1 found via watchrecon, and an exceptional Favre-Leuba Deep Blue, thoughtfully offered to me by a OF member who knows my taste.

    I bought this slate dial IWC today, the dial changes colour\shade more than any other watch I've owned.

    [QUOTE = "Dan S, post: 1341669, membro: 42180"] È stato un anno lento per me. Ho venduto più di quello che ho comprato e prima di questa settimana avevo solo due nuovi arrivi. Ma questa settimana è stata grande, con due fantastici subacquei vintage degli anni '70. Un Benrus di tipo 1 emesso dai militari trovato tramite watchrecon e un eccezionale Blue di Favre-Leuba, offerto in modo pensoso da un membro dell'OF che conosce i miei gusti.

    I just picked up my latest addition today, a 1999 Zenith El Primero Flyback with b&p which was serviced in April 2018. :)

    Arrived earlier this week. Just love these early Breitling digitals. This one need some care since the analog movement doesn’t work. 84A32B28-06B3-45DB-8E55-3079D7727091.jpeg

    Here’s my latest addition to my watch family bought from a pawnbrokers. It’s a 50th Anniversary (2013) Edition Sports 5 World Timer GMT black IP coated stainless steel automatic model SRP437K1with push button deployment clasp and signed buckle with safety lock. Black dial with luminous hands and hour markers. Powered by Seiko 4R36A (hacking) automatic movement. Hardlex crystal face with a Bidirectional World Cities bezel with 24 hour inner ring. Case diameter is 44 mm and about 13 mm thick. English/Arabic Day-Date. Water resistant to 100 meters/330 feet. Clear back case. IMO a lot of watch for the pennies paid !

    That dial has been poorly refinished. Horrible. Do you need to know more?
