Seiko 5 bought in Changi village, Singapore 1969
By: chippyfly : October 9th, 2020-07:01
A slightly sad theme here really. My Seiko was a very accurate watch at that time. Now in the back of a drawer for many years. Box and papers in archive. Worth nothing now but takes up little space, so why throw away? Just part of my history. The Avia was...

Saw this many years ago in a shop window and naively liked the art-deco dial. Complete with contemporary jeweller's box. Recently serviced and going well although not very accurate. Clive For the youngsters among us, UK 7gns=Β£7.35 ...
Very cool looking Rolex

Back when two-tone was in
By: NT931 : October 9th, 2020-23:59
My dad bought this in the mid-80's when twotone watches were popular, and this Datejust is quite a reflection of it's time. He didn't wear it much, reserving wearing it to weddings and special events. He gifted it to me some years ago when he saw me getti...
Hello NT931!! Nice watch with a great provenance.
By: Subexplorer : October 10th, 2020-15:53
I like tapestry dials so much. I also inherited a two tone DJ from my dad. I donβt wear it often because I am afraid it could be robbed as it has a strong nostalgic value for me. Otherwise I wouldnβt hesitate to wear a two tone watch. They got its chsrm a...

iβve identified a couple of tic-tacs, which in part were resting in some watchbox, but practically were not reaching my level of attention to again choose them in my rotation.. Several are children of the 60ies, others just not looked at for a whole while...

I've only had it for a few years . . .

You always choose great straps for your watches and the Breitling one is very cool with the watch. Hope that you and your family are keeping well. Kind regards The Captain
