Love it!
Sometimes we forget how radical the Dynamic design was in its day, and that it was designed for a mass audience. What always amazes me is when I pick one up cheaply and it hasn't been serviced in 30 or more years, not only does it still look retro sharp but it starts right up and keeps good time.

It's Friday somewhere . . .
. . . so let's start with a watch that I've been wearing all week . . . . . . a mid-60s Seamaster 600 which I had serviced and strapped for a friend. I just delivered it to him earlier Thursday evening, and will have a photo of Friday's watch du jour when...
Superb, Art! Going vintage, too, this Friday:
Not a pic of the day, but... HAGWE, my friend. Nicolas...
It's still Thursday night here on the West Coast, Nico . . .
. . . and I think I'm going with a G O tomorrow, but I wanted to share my friend's '67 Seamaster with the WristScan gang . . . sleepily, Art
Thanks, my friend.
I own it for some months, now, but I decided to not hide it anymore... Best, Nicolas
great sm600 Art, same as mine. he's a lucky owner.

Awesome Reverso!

Always a pleasure to see the Bunde, my friend... Best, Nicolas

Not, Cookies... I spent several years to find MY Vintage Reverso... This one is in awesome condition, a nice Seconde Centrale circa 1937. But the hunt is part of the pleasure, my friend. Best, Nicolas
I found another one, with
A chocolate brown dial... A pure marvel, but the price is as important as the watch is nice and rare, so I hesitate a bit... Best, Nicolas

A Vintage, indeed, Filip

"How do you make a Maltese Cross?..."
... steal his VC chrono! There aren't many occasions when you look down at your wrist (or anything for that matter) and say to yourself "Maybe this will do: maybe this could be enough", but today felt like one of those occasions. OK, OK, OK - it didn't re...
I tend to disagree, pplater
Not on the great ( and sadly discontinued ) VC Malte Chrono, but on the occasions we have to have a look at our wrist... HAGWE, Nicolas
Oh come on, admit it Amanico..
... you'd disagree even if you agreed - it's a matter of professional pride! How do you say? - "se faire avocat du Diable..." ;-) Cheers, pplater.
" L'Avocat du Diable "
Didn't know that Evil was your nickname, pplater! I'm not that twisted! Best, Nicolas
VC Chronograph ...
the new Patrimony Traditionelle Chronograph is nice as well, isn´t it Same movement as Malte Chronograph, 42mm and with square pushers. I was not a huge fan from the beginning, but it looks and feels good on the wrist. Oliver ps: Anyway, I prefer the "ope...
i'd prefer the Malte chrono, because
both the case details and dial are more appealing. Oliver... don't tell me this Patrimony Traditionelle Chronograph is yours...
Even a brief moment of contentment is ...
Even a brief moment of contentment is a blessing ... for a WIS. A lovely chronograph. Andrew
206g only, Oliver?
I thought it was even heavier when I tried yours... Damn nice Beast! HAGWE, Nicolas

Latest hi beat handwind
I've been hunting this model for a while - 1969 King Seiko Chronometer 36000 bph. Just arrived. HAGWE, Ginger This message has been edited by Ginger on 2009-11-06 05:18:28...
I like the buckle, too, but
...how about a shot of the watch itself, Pink? You are a tease this Friday. ;-D Enjoy your Maltese Cross. respo
Reminds me of the GO Senator Sixties, Art!
Or - more appropriate - theGO Senator Sixties strongly ressembles this Omega classic which I also value a lot: it has all a watch needs in such a neet and pleasant design - really gorgeous in my eyes! Greetings with my vintage Omega, anaesdoc...
Me, too, anaesdoc . . .
. . . that's why I'm strapping on the Sixties today; it was fun wearing my pal's Seamaster for a week, and now I need a dose of silver dial simplicity to tide me over . . . cordially, Art
Love it!

Dynamic design has very COOL look even nowadays.
hi Ginger, i like to wear this Dynamic during weekends, looks causal and feel cool for myself. by the way, recently, i observe more younger people wearing retro watches, e.g. casio digital watch in gold color. it looks cool to me too which makes me recall...
my mate who was 60 this week, bought one new when he was a young man
he wore it all the time even to work as lorry driver/labourer etc and after a tree branch fell on his wrist he just pulled his hand out which resulted in the crown being ripped off and a huge scratch on the glass. all he did was put it in the box and leav...
Week off over - still in holiday mood
So, I am wearing my summer vacation companion from this year´s seaside trip - while putting on the winter tyres! At least there was some (autumn) sunshine around. Enjoyable and happy week-end to everybody, anaesdoc...
