Tired today. A lot.

Now, THAT'S a dress watch!!! If you google dress watch or look in Webster's, I am sure that picture appears. Please put me in the dibs line, Sir. I am drooling with envy.

First day of the year, and first day ever on the wrist 😀

I bought this at least a couple of years ago, but it needed the correct crown and crystal/rehaut and they took a while to find. Managed to get a Sun buckle for it too last month. Very early 3647T within the first few hundred made. Now this one's done I can move onto the even more knackered 2447T that's been waiting in a drawer. Let's see if I can finish that one for new year 2019.

Me too 👍

The 2447T is unfortunately so far gone it's going to have to go to Tag Heuer for a restoration. The hands would be just about possible to source but the dials are extremely scarce. It'll be interesting to see how much they want to charge for the parts...

Switch up mid-day. Appropriate considering the super moon last night and tonight.

Love the super-compressors and the lume on this one. NICE.

Man, what a tale this has to tell! Would you opt to change the dial if offered? I see this glorious old girl with a overhauled movement and correct hand set on that dial. But, certainly could see why you may go the full restoration route, would sky-rocket the value. I'm just a fool for patina!
