Interesting Deville. Is it a quartz?

So from left to right: Montblanc Starwalker FP and BP, Pelikan M200 with M250 NIB, 1950s Pelikan N140, Pelikan M805, Conway Stewart, Montblanc 146, Stipula Etruria LE991, Montblanc Meisterstuck Diamond FP & BP and at the top is another Conway Stewart (A Dinkie 550).

I love the Pelikan M805 best! It writes perfect and prefer it over any of the Montblanc pens. The Stipula comes close second.

It is. Circa 1986. 20mm and very, very thin. Inherited it from my father as he stopped wearing it. I rarely put it on, unfortunately. Looks good with a suit or more formal attire though.

I guess it has its own original box, hasn't it?
Can you share a pic with the back side as well? Thanks!

Of course, not that I mean to hijack this thread...

In its box

The back of it is pretty dull. When I tried to get a new strap for it, an Omega sales guy at an AD told me it was a knock-off as there was no serial number visible on the back.

So I popped the back off, which shut him up (He was a bit arrogant up to that point).
No strap though; it's 20mm and tapers to 14mm. Eventually found this one... All so I could keep the buckle

And a wrist shot, just for good measure (needs a new battery).

A bit too small by today's standards, but I still give it some wrist time here and there.
And one more with the pen - outta respect for the thread 😀

Cristit, what kind of watch is this? I like the look but can't make out the manufacturer name.

cristit · Dec 12, 2014

It is a Mido Multifort Chronograph. I am glad you like it. Thanks!

😟Sorry I can't post a pic as I am at an airport with out my favorite pen. But then again I am sure everyone knows what a Bic Clicstick looks like.

No Fisher Space Pens yet? Seems like the perfect mate for a Speedy, first pen in space!

I'm more of a NASA Garland p-35 mechanical pencil guy myself but all us space geeks have a Fisher Space pen tucked way in our drawer. Here is one of mine. I had one engraved with the NASA SEB number just for fun. I thought it would look good with the rest of my collection. Still a pencil guy at heart though.
