I bought this one for the Miss, a little Tissot. From 1937-1939 if I read the tables correctly.

 

Some serious Art Deco going on with that beaut.

 

<Gulp>

I was going to post my latest find but now I'm ashamed

 

That's the bracelet we were discussing in another thread. It's a one-owner watch from the late 1960s, and while he has had it serviced several times over the years (we were connected by our common watchmaker), he has obviously gotten his money's worth out of the watch. The crystal has a huge chip, the bracelet is stretched out, the case is also quite worn, needs a service, etc. It won't be cheap, but I think it will clean up ok.

 

I'm not jealous or anything, but I hope you get a flat tire on your way to the watch maker.

 

I have this one on target not sure if stainless or that strap. Enjoy

 

Normally I would buy bracelet and then add a strap, on this occasion the watch was full price on a bracelet but 20% off when bought on the strap. If my maths are correct I should be able to get the bracelet and not incur a financial penalty over the RRP of the watch and strap combination.

 

Picked this up yesterday. Limited edition of 20 pieces in this configuration, using vintage bezel inserts found in the Squale factory.

 

Just received, OMEGA SEAMASTER GOLD CAPPED TWO-TONED CURVED DIAL 1956 REF-2846-2848-2SC CAL-501.
Love to hear your opinion and remarks - Newbie

 

My first tritium Speedy 3572.50. Barely vintage.

Freese 101 landed yesterday...

 

This and this.....

 

It has been over three years since I have purchased any vintage watches but during the week I thought I would have a look at one of the local sites (which I haven't done before for watches) and this popped up. Spent a couple of days doing my research and it came home with me today. Everything works as it should and so far appears to be keeping good time.

Interesting story relating to the City rotating bezel on these. They are now called the error bezel as London, Paris and Rome are in the same timezone. This in fact was not an error at the time as they were manufactured during the three year period when the UK were trialing permanent advancement of one hour not just for summer time.

 

1959 Omega Geneve reference 2903. Except for the strap, completely original and in beautiful condition. Arrived last week from London.

 

Posted previously as I purchased this piece as a gift for one of my daughters and she loved it but obviously not enough as she has just purchased an Apple Watch
Upside is I now have the Slava back in my clutches, ok! as far as cost goes it is as cheap as chips but it is immaculate with great timekeeping and perhaps best of all it is fun
Expect a wrist shot soon.

 

Recently received these two...

Constellation f300Hz Cal 1250 Mosaba D-Shape 198.0004






ZRC Grand Fonds North Adventure LE







P.S: The D-Shape is returning from service sometime this week.

 

Very nice. Congrats

 

Your ZRC is the modern reissue I assume being so clean? Pretty cool watches, they really have their own style.

 

These watch and case knife showed up today (along with a B-2 stealth model aircraft). The 1949 Omega came from our very own superstar @X350 XJR and I really couldn't be happier with it. Awesome dude to boot!
