A slim watch from the 70s. 😁 ref. 196 0023
The first in house quartz from Omega, the quartz crisis safeboat they came up with, I guess.

It’s 1976 again. My Seiko 5 was a Jr. high school-era gift. It’s a fine Canadian watch, featuring both English and French days. Worn perhaps 3 times in 35+ years, it runs perfectly. (I know it’s the 8th today!).

All I do is switch between these two.



Yep, I’m shallow alright. I can fall into domed glossy black dials and never be seen again.

“Doctor? Will I ever recover from this illness?”

“No,” he said. “The best you can hope for is periods where, somehow, watches don’t mean so much to you.”


Fingers crossed!

I haven't worn this one in a while.



I hope you don't mind me indulging in sharing some of the local flora and fauna from the woods in the background.
