Skylight alert!
Looks like a razor sharp case, great looking dial and medallion on the back. Not sure if it’s the factory bracelet or not but style is similar for sure. Price is nice for one of these in this shape and has make offer.

That’s a looker!

Great watch. Here’s one of mine for bracelet compare.

Yours has the fitted ends, so the one posted probably isn’t OEM, but looks good none the less

Stunning Stainless Zodiac with what looks like a flawless slate sunburst dial (the scratch in the pic looks like light scratches on the crystal). This is akin to the Glorious line but isn’t branded as such- so let’s call this Spectacular rather than Glorious. Case looks razor sharp and back doesn’t appear to have ever seen a polishing wheel. This is a nice watch.

Hamilton Cal. 689A Automatic
Love the linen dial and art deco numerals
Green cross kind of cool but personally would have purchased without
Very sharp case back
$225 OBO

Bonus info on cross. Appears to be a corporate award by a safety council that has been long running.

This watch is a steal, I don’t think it was worn much if at all. Normally I don’t care for corporate logos on watches but this one is actually attractive and throws a pop of color on it. Throw it on a tan strap and it will be a stunner

Heh, the "Green Cross" means something different here in California ... set that watch to 4:20 and watch it sell!

Agree, a very clean looking Hamilton.

For what it is worth, this is about the third time the seller has re-listed the item (I’d know as it’s the third time I’ve added to my watchlist). It went for $131USD + shipping last time, so I’d make offer around about there and see where you get!

Orange 666 reissue (although this colorway of black/orange wasn’t part of the original catalog, only the orange/white) LNIB. This is the newer 41mm case size rather than the 44 of the previous generation reissues, Price is cheapest I have seen for the orange- and in Canada so…how aboot that!

She's mine! Thanks, eh. 👍

Just received. Very happy!

I hear uncle Seiko calling your name- 19mm flatlink or Holzer, both slick choices for that one.

And the fit and finish is shockingly good for the price point- any price point actually on a real sport watch. And it just makes you smile when you see it.

Stainless Seiko Sportmatic with white gold
Plated bezel…not sure if I would call this fluted or turned or turningfluted- but it’s something.
Sexy black dial, sexy bracelet, sexy bezel…this is high on the sex-o-meter. Seller says 38mm which is sizable. There is some kind of second crown- not sure what that is but someone here will know (paging @Dan S ).

Not know the market on these at all I would think $299 with make offer on a sexy thing like this wouldn’t be bad…but maybe someone will educate me.

I think there is a button that advances the date.
