hi everyone

Just a FYI . this is still a work in progress..... The Things With Springs Clubhouse room is meant for a Live watch forum experience with a small GTG. We are striving for a collector to collector conversations.. having collectors either email me photo of there watch ( or they can join the forum and reply to this thread ) so we can " chat" about in real time... Just to be clear we dont have to talk about a posted watch ... this is a free flowing room on topics on vintage watches and things around watch collecting ... And at the end of the GTG when everyone leaves the CH room... and the room no longer exist ... This thread will remain as a quasi record of the event and we can later go back and refer to.... Hear you at 3 pm EDT Sunday ....

Likewise, Bill. But the summer is so short and the mountains have been calling. 😀

Here is something I can add to the discussion. I know you sometimes appreciate monochromatic watches like this. It's a ref 1625 Turn-o-Graph circa 1970, no-lume variant with black inlay. It came with the original folded-link jubilee but I'm trying it on a rivet bracelet for a change of pace.
