124103 last night…golden hour, rose gold and blued steel!
Damn…was thinking about putting mine on the block but now, I think it’s off to the spa for a long overdue service.

Smart move. This is a relatively new piece in my collection, and is “competing” for wrist time with a bunch of Tri-Compax and other great watches…but punches WAY above its weight class. Getting far more wrist time than I anticipated. 👍

Huge congrats, where from?

Superb example. Huge congratulations.

Looks like it might be the one that sold recently at auction in Sweden.

Correct, I bought from a small auction house in Sweden.

Thanks I am very happy with it and I think it might have gone under the radar considering the hammered price which was a way below my maxbid 😀

Not often you stumble across PolArouters and especially in decent condition even though this one is not perfect!

A lemania compax from the 90s... The original steel bracelet is 😵‍💫 IMHO but it looks quite nice on a black strap. I'll try a BoR at some point.

Happy to be the proud new owner of this 1960s oversized (38mm!) and double signed (Duray, a Belgian jewelry and watch retailer) chronograph, reference 22704 / 01. Powered by UGs version of the legendary Valjoux 72 (caliber 130), it’s got a terrific presence on the wrist. And no complications to set for a change! Thanks to a couple of forum members here, including @Ted1858, for their prior ownership / stewardship of this great piece of the always amazing UG catalog!
