Going against my collecting principles today. 1. It's modern and 2. It's not an Omega!

That very same watch has nearly caused me to abandon my (not very firmly founded) collecting principles. 😀

I know what you mean. That case, bezel, and bracelet combination is very nice and the dial is way cool. 👍

Same here... a vintage milgauss would at least be one less principle broken though. If only I had that kind of money...

Well... the old ones aren't green! And at least a watch like this doesn't violate my principle of avoiding pieces that will depreciate catastrophically as soon as I leave the store. Rolex has that much going for it... unless you are one of the people who bought this model at a big mark-up (as a purported limited edition) during the initial frenzy.

That lightning second hand is enough reason. Almost bought one myself. And I know I will definitely get one.

Oh no, a gold C-case with a gold dial. 😵‍💫 You stinkin' Zenith guys are gonna cause major problems with my budget.


Always a pleasure to help someone empty their bank account. 💰

Is that an old photo? I think I recognise it from somewhere else like TRF?

Just the shorts? or anything else?
Maybe some Espadrilles too... Boring grey colour though... I'm not always naked.... honest. 😜

He's wearing a different set of slipper today ::stirthepot::
If we're talkin' shoes, my daily shoe of choice is a classic tan brogue. VERY English! 😉

Oh crap, do I have to start rolling my jean bottoms up again, as I did in the early '90s? And must the stitching match the shoe leather? You know I take all my fashion cues from the European watch nerds on this forum and you show me this? :facepalm:

Lovely brogues, by the way.
