Pardon the dust on the crystal. The ML has been getting alot of wrist time lately due to the fact that I had to send my PO in for service:-(







I really like how the sun plays off the black dial! Thank you for the warm welcome. For the past few days I've been browsing through this site reading all the interesting articles and drooling over the wonderful photography! What a great site and a great resource!!! Glad to be here;-) Thomas

Something completely different

 
 By: Gary G : March 13th, 2009-00:34
Bought this in 1971 on a student trip to Switzerland -- 38 years later, it's still running well, despite the obvious fact that I wore it as my exclusive watch for many years! If memory serves I paid $43 for it . First non-Timex I ever owned. I still enjoy...  

You should tell us more about this one, Gary!

 
 By: amanico : March 13th, 2009-00:41
These " First " watches are really so lovely! Can't wait to read more about it. HAGWE. Nicolas

very nice chronometer Gary, and if what i've read is correct, used in Rolex's in the past

 
 By: G99 : March 13th, 2009-03:28
its good to see these 'owned for years scratched and battered, but still running well' pieces. i also like the refreshing attitude that you have for it. its not new, its not high end, its not a sparkling minty vintage, but you love it. best Graham

Thanks, guys
