I have been very fortunate to have many watches including some of the iconic and expensive ones, but I have to tell you this is the most comfortable watch I have ever owned.
Good afternoon everyone 馃榾

The "town watch" choice for today, an Illinois No. 606 Capitol model, 21-jewels, three adjustments from 1920 with the neato "Red Dot" vitreous enamel dial.


New shirt. I love airliners from bygone eras, especially Constellations and all flying boats. Airplanes worthy of a Mad Dog to pilot them!

I hope you feel better soon. Having Covid one is too many times, in my opinion.

Well thanks I鈥檓 happy to report other than three real bad days it was pretty much a flu. I was just reading something that said barring any surprise variants it should work it鈥檚 way down to a cold. Not that colds are fun but I鈥檒l take that over this nonsense.

I'd like to see a lume shot of this!



The differences between the 10th and regular Diver One are the addition of a ceramic bezel insert that is fully lumed, box around the date window, and polished case accents.

I also have a yellow D1-500, an M.S.19 (a yearly special edition), a titanium D1-500 with a blue "prototype" dial, and a previous version Diver One 300 (meters) with a blue dial and yellow hands.

My first Zenith, a vintage Sporto. Appears to be NOS as advertised, so it just came back from its first spa visit.

Interesting, you found one identical to mine but a Sporto not a Surf. Does it say Surf on the case back by chance? Such a good looking watch!
