WristScan

Every day is vacay . . .

 

. . . on my calendar.  Some are just more relaxing than others.

Took the latest acquisition to the watchmaker today.  His verdict? . . .




. . . practically within chronometer standards as is.  >290ยบ amplitude, <0.2 ms beat error, +6 sec/day timing.  And that's without any known service history.

Gotta love vintage Omegas!

Last summer we specialised in squid fishing.

 
By: Alex83 : July 31st, 2016-03:08
In Galicia, north of Spain. Night fishing in the port's shallow waters, very amusing, you can see the squids hunting. The kids loved it!

Fishbait as background. Now, that's . . .

Creativity, always do my best.

By: timerider : July 28th, 2016-12:45
and give the straps a break! This AP also has a warm place in my heart as it was found in Paris, while I was on a break. This AP is light and durable with a bit of history and simply a joy to wear. The garden is enjoying the heat and the light was amazing...
