And finally a Zodiac. Not working but again in decent shape. Under $100 is the key. https://www.ebay.com/itm/274465279250

That one needs some real work- retaining ring is wrong, crown is wrong (or trashed), dial is gouged up- not so glorious anymore. But agree, for $66, it could be a good parter or baseline for a project.

Indeed. It was glorious long ago 😉

Lovely GP Bulova 30 jewel non-lume hands/ dial with Arabic and dash indices. The beaded second track is awesome. Crystal is crazing so needs replacement but these can be fitted with GS and dial looks flawless- look at that golden glow! Running and has make offer.

Hamilton GP Estoril 300 with date at 6. This is a slick looking late 60’s watch- plating looks decent, black dial with gold markers is sharp as shit! Crystal may polish up, original space-age H crown and the case back is awesome.

A bargain indeed! The pictures were not the best, so it will be nice to see what it looks like after it arrives.
Arrived yesterday - quick clean and onto a nato for the time being. Thanks again for the spot!

@JwRosenthal arrived today, pretty happy although it is smaller than expected. Luckily I have skinny wrists and no ego, dark grey suede strap on order. Cheers

This is one that I am now kicking myself over- holy crap! Look at those pips, and the depth on that dial, and the applied indices that play the light....yum!

As for size, as I have said in many-a-thread, wear it with a long sleeve shirt for a solid week and no other watch, and you won’t even notice the size and in fact will feel like your wearing an a anchor when you strap a 40+ watch back on.

Oh- and dibs.

Dibs noted! I wear 34mm stuff quite often and presumed this was the same, it just surprised me at 31mm. Literally no big deal, it’s a charmer!

Yeah, 31 is on the line. I have had success using a pull through strap like an RAF style- the leather ones can be quite smart looking and help bulk it up a bit

Yeah, we’re gonna need to see some good pics of that one.
When I've cleaned it up a bit and put on a new strap I'll try to get some decent shots but I'm no cameraman 🙁
