Thanks JohnFM!
How right you are. But then I am not sure that we as consumers do enough to encourage such behaviour from watch brands. You certainly get fun and whimsical at the entry level in terms of price, and to an extent in the relatively expensive spheres but little in between, I guess. Reflecting how buyers vote with their wallets?
Because Giovedi just sounds better than Thursday - the Eterna Sevenday Fastbeat
Returning from holidays is a great way to reconnect with watches you haven’t taken with. And as another watch from the Fastbeat list (here: www.watchprosite.com for potential candidates) is inbound, I figured the time came for the Eterna Sevenday ...
Thanks HSTE!
The next one is funky in a different way - different brand, too. Quite excited
Great looking vintage watch. I love the look.
I also like the name “Sevenday” - all one word! I find little details like that very appealing. Regards Kev.
Thanks a lot, Kev!
I find vintage Eterna to be quite an exciting brand. So many interesting facets to it
Lovely Eterna, much admired when seen!
I guess your other high beats are the Seiko’s? - what’s due next in the 36000 fast lane? Cheers, Giles. ...
One Zenith, two Grand Seikos and one Seiko pocket watch :)
Actually forgot that I’m already at five The sixth will be a new brand to me but certainly one with a historical involvement in the field Thanks Giles and your high beats - like the one next to the Eterna - are truly superb!
Ahh yes - forgot the P15 has the 'El Primero' magic within ;-)
You are, as always, very kind dear friend. And I look forward to seeing which high beat comes your way next! - a GP for instance? Best, G.
Fabulous, and in great shape!
It will be a feast when you put it on the wrist, congratulations! Regarding the language, you made me think of Rolex, that offers over 50 languages for its Day-Date: a unicum on the market. massi
Thanks a lot, Massi!
It is always a fun watch - and reminds me of trips to Italy. Might even have had it with me in Trieste As for Rolex - that’s an interesting piece of info. Should not be difficult for others to replicate but I guess no one does
Should find out next week...
Some unexpected developments at work. Will let you know of course
What an eye-catching, fun, and whimsical design!
I wish there were more watches available now with this sense of flair and creativity.
Thanks JohnFM!

Great point KMII
At the low end, colorful and fun watches are often a fashion accessory. At the high end, manufacturers may want to distinguish themselves with exotic designs and materials. But in between, watches tend to be more sober and ‘serious’ and, regrettably, buye...
