Today's haul, some interesting watches amongst it all such as a Marks and Spencer watch ( pink with flowers) that will go to my 4 year old or if my wife wants to have that look and a Mainland Cheese brand ( Fontera sub brand) watch that actually looks kinda cool for a promotional gimmick and the leather strap is top class, Tissot, Olympics, SEIKOS and a Hollywood Riding School watch brand and of course that large fashion statement women's watch for the hard of eyesight.

Recently arrived 165.024 ‘Big Triangle’ - I’m still in awe of the dial, bezel and lume condition! 🥰 Came on its original 1506 bracelet with 16 end links, but I prefer wearing it on a period Tropic strap - just feels right for a diver…
Delivered to Hong Kong on Jan 8, 1968 according to the extract…

This arrived yesterday.

And after a brief stint at my Watchmaker getting a lens polish today.

You had the moonswatch before it was popular.

If anyone knows what "tropicalized" means in this context, please let me know.

It's a manner of rust proofing metal parts, typically a coating.

This just came in this morning.. Just like the last arrival, I had stopped actively looking for SM120s but then this one came up. It wasn't a bargain, but I happily paid a bit extra for the color of this lume 😀
I must say, I really love how it wears - a lot lighter than the SM300.
