And another project for the new year.

 

Love that dial

 

very unique lugs!!! nice watch thou

 

Just stumbled upon this gobbi-signed manual-wind (cal. 1200) . Has anyone come across a tapestry dial like this before?

 

She is a beauty!!

 

Interesting to see vey niche retailers!

 

Nice UG @klugt

 

I've seen a few tapestry dials but never a Gobbi signed one. Beautiful.

 

Bit of a pattern emerging here.

Not sure whether to view this as a project or a relatively expensive spare movement.


Had this one a while but it's never made it to this thread. Now serviced and what a case.


And finally. A Kazim from Lucknow


The school still exists but sadly no mention of Brother Long on their website, not even to mention that the money was only resting in his account (™Graham Linehan).

 

My only double-signed UG. Duray 22704/1 compax

Nice Turler 22296-2 at: https://www.visionvintagewatches.com/product-page/1950s-universal-geneve-uni-compax-t

 

And another Turler. Interesting print with no Geneve

 

Love the Caracas connection. It must have been a wonderful city back in those days.

 

Nice Benson

 

Fantastic. Most of the JW Benson I remember seeing have been time only.

 

Same here. Very interesting execution.

 

Another wonderful Turler

 

This is BTW one of the strangest I've see so far. No UG and no serial (although I'm not 100% convinced of the caseback): https://www.hashtagwatchco.com/prod...ed-steel-chronograph-cal-285-wristwatch-1950s
