Still wearing my Straight Writing 69 since launch, oddly enough switched to my right wrist as I swapped watches on my left one a couple of times.

Appropriate tool for the seasonal tire swap (60s Wittnauer 4000 dive watch).

Didn’t set the time for manual winding’s sake, and it’s a Saturday.🤗

I have been looking up what's available from Sea Gull in the way of Chronographs over the last week, was thinking to buy a 3 register and was simply blown away by what was available. Some of it is very cool indeed from the 2 register to 3 register and now even a Rattrapante chronograph, so much choice! I might have to stick with this one for a little while though my buying finger is itching to get another.

Hate to bore everyone with another “Dad watch” but gonna do it anyway. 😁 Mid-nineties service gift for my Dad who was an independent general practitioner, but this was for 20 years of service with a hospital he was associated with.

He recorded 2 battery changes (one in English and one in French, complete with unreadable doctor signature 😲) after which I suspect it sat for 25 years until I got it changed yesterday. Luckily the batt hadn’t leaked, so it came right up, albeit with droopy date.

More interesting to me, the strap shape still shows the hole/sizing he used, reminding me what a large wrist he had compared to me.

So I present the mid nineties Victronix Swiss Army model 24220 in composite ABS plastic, tritium dial, single jewel Swiss quartz mvmt, with knife matching red bezel. YaY!
