I picked up a Mission to Mars MoonSwatch last Tuesday during an unplanned visit to the Swatch store. They also had Sun, Earth and Uranus available.

As you know, pictures don’t do it justice. It’s mesmerizing. I’ll have to try shooting it with the camera soon and see what I can capture.

Just bought off Facebook tonight an Enicar 25 jewel manual wind in exceptional original condition for a good price, deceased estate, totally unmolested.

Talked to the surviving partner so got a good account of the history, a very rarely worn watch.

Might get a service for it but not essential at the moment.

Came quite unexpectedly, had coincidentally just passed on a black dialed example last night at auction (I was out bid to ridiculous price before bowing out) at the same price but in very poor and faulty condition ( these are non incabloc) so this near as damnit perfect example made my day!

I finally decided that it was long enough without a Speedmaster Pro. Picking it up in CT in a few weeks.

This is my first post & I would like to start by sharing my very interesting auction purchase in Glasgow, Scotland a few days ago with photographs. I think I got an absolute bargain as it was in a joblot with four other very boring & cheap dress watches.

The watch is a tiny little 1939 Omega Acier Staybrite with fantastic provenance as it comes with a French receipt from Lille, dated 9th March 1940 which is only a few months before the signing of the armistice after the Battle of France following the German WW2 invasion.

I hope the Omega enthusiasts enjoy the photographs and also agree, that I have (pardon the pun) won a watch on this purchase .

PS it is not the original leather strap, however upon winding, this little watch keeps excellent time 😁

This finally finally arrived today. Full 80s vibe 😀 Fantastic watch. The opposite of “heft”. Watch and bracelet is incredibly thin.
