New and “improved” calendars now made in China. 🙁 Shouldn’t the year be “rabbit” 🥱🤦

Tried to source "Made in the USA" bracelet calendars but had no luck... then I found a USA based company that designs them here in the States and has them made in China -- just like my phone I'm posting from and I would assume yours or your PC.
I did find a somewhat local to me screen printing business that can also print on various metals -- when I contacted them about a single run of 12 individually screen printed monthly calendars on very thin bendable recycled aluminum they quoted me -- from design to mock-up to approval to set-up to finished product -- a price $499.99.
I opted for China at $13.99

Another dial for the pile

very nice T step dial for a 145.022-69 or -71
Full lume, no marks on the dial, just dust, bad lighting and poor photography.

Just found this today, not seen another like it, had to have it.

Black outer ring is the alarm set.

Bit yellowed at the moment with the urea content or UV light, hopefully I can polish it all back to white again.

That is an incredible advertisement poster. Where'd you find it?

I recently picked up three new watch straps for my new Hamilton Khaki Field (and I guess they can be worn on the Speedy, too)

With it’s fixed bars, I’ve tried all sorts of straps.

I had it on a very comfortable black perlon but didn’t really enjoy the combo.

Decided I’d try a perlon strap that matched the lume rather than the dial.

I think it works

Picked up a pair of Nanuk 910 watch storage cases.

Fantastic quality and value for your valuable watches.
