Happy birthday to the Mrs! That's a great shot. Love the low light, it draws you in to try to discern details of both of those fine watches. It's late and I'm hungry so I'm also fantasizing about what was on that menu lol... Could really go for a good gnocchi right now
A bit of '70s fun today Almo diver running a Jubilee 864 movement (I believe Jubilee was a brand of Longines but love some enlightenment from you learned gentlefolk if you know more.)
So nice to have my Speedmaster back from Simon. My 1990's version of an extract which I requested (it honestly feels like I did this yesterday!!) tells me it was supplied to the UK in October 1965. Thereafter it had a very hard and salty life in the armed services before I took over as only its second custodian which I bought on an impulse....
Am finding myself wearing this more and more. I am beginning to suspect it is the sleeper of the trilogy, and may be the one I keep for longest. It’s the FOIS Barenia* strap if you were wondering. * I am not actually sure what Barenia means but have seen it used in the context of this strap, and the similar looking deployant version, feel free to enlighten me or if you prefer ridicule my ignorance!
