My little overpriced collection.

The first one was sold to me as the OG of seamasters. The one the 1948 had remade. Turns out the dial may be but the bumper cal does not match and may be a combination of two. Either way, It works well and I wear it often.

The second one I only bought because of how tiny it is. Crazy to have an automatic watch in such a tiny case.

The third one is a seamaster with a cal 501 that I bought with the balance shaft and who knows what removed. I thought maybe some day I would try to fit it. Probably wont though...

The fourth one, which will probably be my favorite, is a c case constellation I just bought on craigslist. The band is stretched ( I would like to fix of have fixed) and its dirty but seems to run well. I have not see the movement yet but it is push/pull to change the date.


I also have a 60s tudor big rose and a '53 rolex 6094 but I won't post those here 😉

Judging by the position of the regulator on the first watch, that piece needs a service asap. I wouldn't wear it anymore until I got it sorted, If I were you, especially since you said you wear it a lot.

Yeah, I know this unfortunately... lol.. I purchased it from fullywound on ebay before I knew anything. Paid $800.00 and some change for it. haha. ugh. Id almost rather just wear it till it breaks unless I find someone who is affordable and trust worthy. The seller said it was freshly serviced!

No I am not kidding. It's like do you put a $2500 transmission into your rusted $1000 car? The way I see it, any service would cost $400 plus anything they may come across. I tried to sell it locally for $800.00 for a long time. No bites. No offers. So put another 400+ plus into it to still not be able to sell it? Lol rather just keep wearing it as it works well as is.

Not interested in selling the tiny one. Even if it's worthless and a redial, it was cheap and the tiny movement is so cool.

The broken one I don't mind holding onto. Maybe I'll meet someone someday who wants to try to fix it. Or maybe I'll find a 501 movement to swap out. I over paid for that one too. $230

The constellation is my favorite. Overpaid for that too. I'm not a seller. I have a job. I buy them because they're awesome. I will have it on a strap after I get it cleaned up but I am considering sending the bracelet to Michael Young as his pricing seems pretty reasonable on that service.
