I briefly balanced it on my wrist this morning in order to qualify.

 

Longines first automatic movement in today’s watch, a 1950 caliber 22A in 14k YG:



One of a handful purchased from ‘The Squirrel’ 7 years ago before he (@ulackfocus) said ‘aloha’ to our beloved forum…

 

This dirty little thing on wrist today

 

Morning sunlight in the breakfast room

 

Forgot to post last night’s VL, the venerable caliber 22A again, but this time the center seconds version, or 22AS:



1950. 14k YG.

This one was also acquired 7 years ago from The Squirrel; who was my Longines mentor back then.

 

That's just super. Can you say more about the bracelet?

 

Conquest

 

Nothing special really. A bracelet from the 70s I bought on eBay I believe. It just fits the style nicely I find.
Will take a picture later, just a nice sturdy thing

 

I didn’t snap a pic at dinner, cuz I was too lazy to change the ‘date at 12’, but here she is, my most beautiful non-PR Conquest, from 1960:

 

…
Great condition! …and the correct original, difficult to keep Crown.. just beautiful

 

Oh no, it's not boring .... Today again because it's back from service and I missed it much
