tomorrow

It’s been many years since I wore any Daytona regularly. I’m hoping this will be the one I wear most of the time.

Waiting for this to arrive. Solid 18K Girrard Perregaux 36000bph chronometer, with apparently very rare dark brown, somewhat spangly dial (and no, it's not refinished / painted).

It's a Constellation c-case rip-off obviously, even down to the coin-edge bezel. Becoming very interested in this case style and its cultural significance in the early 1970s. Seems to have been ubiquitous with examples from many different brands, and very much linked to that era.

Arrived today from Italy. May need a relume, but seems fine otherwise.

Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

Those of us who grew up worrying about nuclear war, ducking and covering, so hoped we wouldn’t have to worry again.

Hey y'all! It's been awhile since the last time I posted. Here's my newly acquired watches... First one is Longines Heritage Sector first edition. I prefer this piece than the other versions because it has beveled heat blued hands with mirror polished top that the black version didn't have, and simple but interesting dial details that the hodinkee version didn't have. But not long after, I got quite bored so I decided to do something to fix it. I polished the bezel, only the top portion while keeping the other case finishes the same. Stunning result! Though I have to admit, it easily got fine hairline scratches But nonetheless I liked it way better this way....


And another one is... Heritage Diver 1967, which also have cross hatch like the Sector. It's a heavy, thicc, bold, eccentric, multifunction watch, with the chronograph, diver, and dual time indication on the bezel. It has a big eye ️ layout as well. Though I wish they re-release this piece with thinner movement like what they did with chronograph tuxedo, but with bicompax big eye layout, no date, fully lumed ceramic bezel.

Just picked up this 2792 this morning on eBay. Original dial and handset. Came with a new lizard strap, a new calf skin strap and a lightly used Longines alligator strap! Should arrive next week.

I have three incoming watches this week. One coming back from Omega from a warranty servicing. I picked up this one last week and it’ll pair well with my mk1 reference.




Just won the auction on this one today. Comes with the box.


My birthday is next weekend. Off to a really good start 😎
