my Ball (now I only have one 😵💫") Moonphase. I had it just a few weeks ago, set the moon, yada, yada... then... poof! 😕
I'm looking forward to this happening when I finally find my Ball (now I only have one 😵💫") Moonphase. I had it just a few weeks ago, set the moon, yada, yada... then... poof! 😕
It must be somewhere in the house... unless the housekeepers... 😒... naw, I leave watches all over the house sometimes when they're here: JLC, Omega, Rolex... and they take a BALL? Me thinks not...
It will be like a mini-Christmas when it finally shows up...
Confession time, I lose things on a daily basis although so far no watches just the bits and pieces I want to keep safe.
They end up really safe, I just can't remember where they are. 🤦
I once found a stainless Submariner down the side of my couch while looking for the remote and didn't remember when I'd bought it (16610 beater I'd taken as a trade I later remembered).
Probably sat there for two years after falling out of my pocket the day I got it but when I told my sister that she sort of shook her head with this look like only you could find a lost Rolex down a couch and not remember where it came from.

this one has no lume and relatively flat....put it down on a cross-beam in the storage room under the stairs when moving boxes around after Christmas last year......drove me crazy trying to find it until about 6 weeks ago when I was looking for a "lost" cat during a thunderstorm.
I bought a super flat Enicar Sea Pearl in Singapore many years ago.
Some time later I was "courting" a beautiful young lady named Mary Anne.
She noticed my watch one night and mentioned the fact that it was beautiful and simple and just classic and she loved it.
(obviously had great taste as most womens watches at the time were about 20mm in diameter).
With no ulterior motive in mind 😉, I gave it to her and said she could wear it as long as she liked.
Shortly thereafter, my employer (the Navy) decided that I was no longer needed and shipped me back to my home port for discharge.
The process was so fast (unusual for the Navy) that I never had time to say goodbye to my sweetheart, or even my buddies. So I never had the chance to get my watch back (and I don't think I would have asked for it anyway).
So somewhere there is a lovely lady looking at a 1960s Enicar and wondering "Where the hell did I get that............... it is beautiful though".
Ahhhhh........... nostalgia.
She was one helluva a girl back then.
