Wearing this today to get new battery, my first luxury watch bought new in the 80's ...

Wish I knew about Speedmaster back then - 2915 borrowed from the OB below.

Super Troopers.

In It's a Wonderful Life, Vi says something like this. "Oh! This old thing? I only wear it when I haven't got anything else to wear!" This, as she flounces down the street after a chorus of whistles, and a compliment on the dress she was wearing. I think that's the movie you have in mind.

Those old things. I only wear them when I haven't got anything else to wear.

Who knows the source of that quote? One of my all-time favorite films.😗

Not to be a stickler (or, rather, to clarify), but...
"Oh, this old thing? Why, I only wear it when I don't care how I look."
Not that I am a fan of the movie or anything.

my all-original Speedy! unpolished case, untouched and original dial, correct crown, pushers, hands and bezel, undisputed original condition...this one remains complete as it left Omega's production line...

TGIT!

Mad Dogging it today, spending what might be the last few hours I have with my trusty Repco “Fauxlrouter” before it goes to a better place.

Good work Mad Dogging...take the rest of the day off...with pay. 👍

Newest member of the antimagnetic brigade - treading lightly on the border between damaged and patinated, I really like this one! The 35mm size makes it a bit bigger than the other old Tissots I have, but I would love to have a better matching crown for it - if anyone can help out, I'd be happy to hear from you 😀

The indices are quite white for a watch of that era, but I'd love to have the bezel. Compared to this bezel, the DONs are dime a dozen.

This how you take a car wash wrist shot, with groovy lighting of course

Now we're gonna have a car wash Themed thread with wrist shots?
