If ever one might be excused for uploading an image of a day/date watch with the calendar showing an incorrect day and date, it would be with this one. My 60 year old (approx.) Gruen day date. Different in that it is a manual winder with no quick-set function on the calendar. When I decided to wear this one today, it took me 20 minutes to refresh my memory for the calendar setting procedure, and to get it set.

New acquisition. Not a collector grade watch, but a wearable watch, which i enjoy.

It's Tuesday.

Off to pickup a watch from servicing.

And after well over ten years of looking, I found someone to service this Glycine and I didn't have to send it to the horrid official Glycine service center.

Looks better than when I bought it used in 2008. Probably runs better, too. We'll see.

Sold a recently purchased AP Millenary… for a Breguet Tradition… I wish I could afford keeping both 😅. They wear great but the Breguet is just super cool! (My wrist is 7” for those wondering)

The last of a breed today, an American made Elgin, 780, B.W. Raymond. The 780 has Elgin's durabalance, a free sprung balance, and when it hit the market Patek was the only other manufacturer producing a freesprung balance. These are really nice watches and they show that even towards the end of watchmaking in America, US companies were building innovate and quality timepieces.
