An old Valjoux 22 chrono

 

I think we all have relatives who think it's odd that we do that; no biggie....they just don't have the knowledge and appreciation of these fine pieces no matter what we say!

 

Same speedy watch (on the OEM bracelet instead of the nato), different speedy car.

 

Recto



... verso ?!?



Sekonda Strela, aka "the Russian Speedmaster", from 1966, vs 145.022-68 ST

 

Meeting at 3

 

That is so unique

 

What is a memomatic?

 

An Omega with an alarm

The pendant to JLC Memovox (Seamaster version)

 

2 o'clock meeting.
Love that blue wiggly hand!

 

I'm lucky enough to live here at the moment. You're right the Valais is great, got to learn to ski in Verbier three years ago and hike there very often (whenever I'm not working).

 

Nax was our base for many years, happy memories.

 

Evening ride on the old "Warrior" with the faithful clock to remind me when it is wine time

 

Two good-looking, and reliable machines

 

The old two legged machine is not quite so reliable

 

New to me

 

Can't get enough of these early Autavias …



This is a Heuer Atavia ref. 2446C, latest execution with black inserts on indices and main hands. The snap back case houses a Valjoux cal. 72 movement.



This watch was issued by the Argentinian Airforce and shows just enough wabi for a used military watch.




Enjoy,

Mick
