    Today, and for the next few weeks. My 52-year old Accutron 214 of which I am the sole owner. Had it since 1964. This is a sentimental favourite because it is the watch I wore on our wedding day, April 16, 1966. It shows on my wrist in our wedding photo, albeit on a strap rather than a bracelet back then. Fifty years married! Not a record, but better than average. Still married to the same girl!

    The straight writing is providing some serious wrist time competition to the Ploprof 1200. And it's been 3 days since I have worn the Ploprof 600.

    Only had my old camera phone to document a rather lovely evening stroll with my girlfriend, whom I'm truly lucky to have! When reading something like this

    I know I have someone special - hope to live long enough to share a similar story sometime :thumbsup:






    Oh yeah, the watch:

    Fifty five years ago, on 12 April 1961, Yuri Gagarin became first human to journey into outer space when his Vostok spacecraft completed an orbit of the Earth. Allegedly Gagarin was wearing this watch during his mission - Poljot Sturmanskie. Not fancy as a Speedy but this timepiece has its own place in history :)

    Started the day with an oldie (picture taken when I left work)...
    2016-04-11 15.07.00.jpg

    Then, changed to this so I could use it again (still new for me and awesome to wear)

    2016-04-11 16.23.24.jpg

    And finally, had to dress up for the night so wore this (also a new addition from last week)

    2016-04-11 17.47.58.jpg

    So yeah, got to wear three watches on the same day!
    HAGW y'all!

    The sangria doesn't look too shabby either... I can think of worst ways to spend some time with a Longines Greenlander.

    It is established OF lore that if you acquire the bracelet for a sought reference sans watch, the watch will often appear. Through some form of magical sympathetic attraction I suppose.:cautious:

    Preferring magic over hard work and diligent searching, I am hoping the reverse works as well...:p

    Top notch post! Thank you for sharing! My wife and I were married 13 years ago, I look forward to 37 years from now when we celebrate our 50th.
