A beautiful Tissot from our own @Syrte for €400. Know someone interested in vintage and wants to join the hobby? This would make for a very fun gift!

Thanks so much @Scarecrow Boat for the kind endorsement

I own this exact watch, stainless case, FHF movement in mine, should clean up nicely. A great value these days for a stainless diver, especially if you can get the seller to come down a little.

Was wondering about the size of this one, then noticed in the listing that it's a little wider than Thomas Jefferson.

I made an offer of $225 on this one and seller came back at $250- which is actually a really good price for it. These Jubilees (Longines- bargain brand) are more popular with black dial but I think the silver is striking and they don’t come up as often. Stainless case and 37mm which is a perfect size for the form factor. The bezel and case on this are about as good as I have ever seen on this model watch. I seriously need to not buy this, someone please put me into of my misery.

Did you get it?

Did you get it?

I did! Tried a $245 offer just to be cheeky, instantly denied, $250, accepted about a minute after.

You asked for help, I'm here to help!

of course, you've got first dibs if I ever decide to release it in to the wild again.

I really agonized over that one, I made the offer last night and sat on the counter most of today. I have a silver dialed Mondail that’s similar that I don’t wear often and I am trying to keep it reigned in as we are a single family income at the moment….fuck is this hard.
Thanks for taking one for the team!

Another 666 re-issue, this is the classic black/red, full kit with additional isofrane style. Not badly priced at $275, has make offer. Would make a great daily in the vintage style that you can actually take in the water.

Rejected my offer ($180) with no counter offer. Despite the option for best offer, I have a feeling the seller is looking for list price.

Still don’t think it’s a bad deal as $200 considering it’s working.
Here is mine



It’s 36.5x47 so the longer lugs help the sizing a bit. I paid $150 for mine a few years ago but it had taken on water through the crown and the movment was rusty. I found a NOS movement, bought a new crown and stem and had it fixed, so I probably have about $300 into it.

I know it’s my sort of watch but I thought it looked nice

Don’t know how I didn’t see this yesterday:
From our own @agee -
Lovely stainless Accutron 218 with bracelet. This is a very nice honest piece with sharp can and a nice cross-hair dial. The price is very fair for a hummer that’s keeping time.

Here's one for patina-lovers. BIN at $129. Running. Photo with calipers makes it look close to 34mm.

Thank you Dan S. He’s even lovelier in person!

If you love the mid-century esthetic, it really doesn’t get much better than this.
Gold plated Elgin with Florentine bezel, concentric dial, applied faceted indices, stepped outer track and puffy yellow radium pips. Seller says not running but it’s an AS movement so parts and service should be an easy breezy. Has make offer so someone could grab this at a bargain.

I’m not in the habit of posting parts in this thread, but I know we have some that are always on the lookout and if you have a project watch, this may be the ticket.
Hamilton micro-rotor, fully intact, seller says works. These are hard to get parts.
