One of two on my wrists today. This one, and my Rolex Date-Just. The one shown is my late father’s Bulova Accuquartz from 1973. It quit running shortly before he passed away in 1976, so he only wore it for three years. I inherited it, but didn’t do anything to it until about 10 years ago when I happened upon another identical Accuquartz that ran. So it became a donor I used to return this one to health after a 40 year sleep. It is odd that the original movement died after three years! I showed this one recently on a leather strap. But I really prefer bracelets. I stumbled on this bracelet in my stash, today, so it is now on the watch.

Timex had a sale here in Canada on this black dial MK1, 36mm, manual wind, domed acrylic crystal, quite happy with it. On the very comfortable OEM nylon Nato strap and on straps I made using smooth calf leather from RMLS that is a good substitute for Shell Cordovan leather.
Mine says hi. I beat the crap out of this thing. Its on its third or fourth battery.

That is a nice looking one. I always like a red second hand too.

To be honest, I think my watches are all a bit ‘samey’



But changed my mind later this morning

Yep. Struggling to spot the difference on those two.

You certainly have a type. All class!
Time to look at the Invicta catalogue? (Tip: don't pay RRP)

😀😀 but recently, all my posts have featured round 34.5/35 white faced classics, mostly on tan Epsom straps ….

So, my edit was to reflect another sunburst dial, albeit black with a green Epsom strap 😂😂😛
