Watch Ya Wearing
- Thread starter frank85
- Start date
I finally took some pics of the watches I have... so far.
First the Seiko. I really like that watch. The one I wear the most. I bought titanium because of steel allergies, so far no irritation whatsoever.
Second a submariner hommage. I know next to nothing about this watch. I bought it second hand on watchuseek, it's sterile, have no idea of the movement. Mounted it on a bund (german army I think, the one with the long code on the back) because of the previously mentionned allergies. I got this one as a field watch, but it's so nice I wear it in the city too.
And finally my good old swiss army watch. A little uncomfortable on the wrist though.
Seriously I had this watch for about 5 years because I couldn't afford a titanium watch. Served me well but I don't really use it anymore. Yes it's one hour late because I didn't wear it since I changed time zone. I changed the battery once in 5 years.

The watch I'm wearing (every day watch - automatic, stainless steel band Orient CEM
And the watch that I can't afford to have fixed right now (it was my grandfather's 1975 Rolex Datejust, also stainless - I can only wear stainless bands)
Beautiful Rolex. I am very lucky that one of the top Rolex master watchmakers has a business only a couple of miles from me. I would save money and have the Rolex repaired.
Citizen Eco-Drive "EcoZilla" Pro Diver's 300m, sorry for the crappie pictures. Crackberries blow when taking pictures. Pooter is dead, so this will have todo for now. 
Why, yes the hands are that bright.

Vintage Tissot Seastar Seven today.
Gents, if you want a vintage Omega but can't afford the ticket of admission, consider a Tissot made from the 70's and earlier. Tissot sourced their movements from Omega.

A thirty year old Bouliva field watch from L. L. Bean. I just can't seem to shake it
My dress watch is a gold Accutron with my college seal on the face but I don't dress up any more so I don't wear it lovely and sentimental as it is.

Don't think I've seen that Bulova before, Andrew. Nice. 
Nice watch, Austin. I like the orange hour markers.

Vintage Benrus Electronic Citation. This is a recent acquisition that will be going to the watchmaker for service and a new crystal. This is a really cool watch. It uses a battery to power a mechanical movement.

Big and rugged, easy for my ageing eyes to read..........on one of the incomperable leather Toshi straps.

I love Kobolds. I also like your band. Is it 24mm?
