GP Jumbo this morning, had it serviced last year but only worn it twice since then.

The strap probably should be a different colour but I guess it is a partial match to the gold hands however probably should be a different colour, open to suggestions. What's on it is a Condor Elite strap which I really like as they are super thick leather and not padded but I have other Gold Watches this could be on more appropriately.

Have been on a moritorium from buying watches for the last year+. Thanks to @rendo infecting me with diver madness, i broke that this week.
The photos were crap, bracelet was described as “broken” (missing spring bar) crystal cracked and sold as-is. I sent a low ball offer and got it. But even with the crappy pics showing only a couple links and no clasp shot, I knew exactly what the bracelet was which is why I bought it.

Bracelet is full length (2 links in the clasp and still loose on my 7.5” wrist) which is rarely ever the case with these JBC’s.
Even though I had planned to pull the bracelet and put the watch in the parts bin, it cleaned up beautifully and is keeping perfect time. I may just hunt down a crystal for it. Anyone got a 1389AW burning a hole in their parts bins?
Nice! I love it when it arrives in better condition than the photos.

My beloved 145.022-69 is getting a bit of wrist love, this time mounted on a superb Volanato Rally Strap from Watchstrapheaven. Jan is really deserving all the praise coming his way.

Two Accutrons today, one on each wrist. The Accutron Railroader 214 because it is Railway Days at our local historic park, next week end. The Accutron Spaceview 214, just because.

Welll…it was as nasty as in the photos. Nothing a little Dawn, Naptha and Tom’s of Maine couldn’t clean up.
