After church today. A '57 Omega Constellation w/pie pan dial.
Yes, the Vostok scuba dude.
I have a scuba dude version. It has been great for a cheap watch and feels nice and substantial without being too big. As for the quality or issues, it might be the luck of the draw. I got lucky
Im actually liking mine a lot as a weekend and vacation watch it actually gets a lot of compliments. Like with anything once you get used to them and how they work you can really appreciate what you have
The Speedy's a peach.
Peaches are almost ripe on the backyard tree. Squirrels are beginning to maraud.

My new favorite. Chinese Bauhaus. I added a lizard band.
Casio Japanes Movement Men's Leisure Chronograph (A163WA-1QES) - the drinking man's Cartier.
I've got the Jacques Lemans on again today.
Vostok Amphibia Sailboat
Just can't take off the Vostok Amfibia I got in back in May ... it does 2-3 seconds slow a day: great for a Vostok!
I set it a minute ahead once every couple weeks.

Have it regulated to be a little fast, then stop the movement once a month for the total amount of seconds it runs fast per month. With a precise (consistently off) watch, even if it isn't accurate, you can thus achieve good accuracy after one month.

It's time to pick the peaches. Nothing like a sun-warmed, tree-ripened peach. 100F+ is a bit too warm however.
1954 Omega automatic with 354 movement.

Thanks, very interesting! I wear a Vostok komandirskie, I like it a lot. I have been wearing these watches for about 2 years. They are always on my hand, I take them off only when I go to bed. Recently, I ordered them from http://vostokamphibia.com store and I don't regret it at all. I often swim in a pool with them, and I am sure that everything will be fine with them. It is a excellent Russian watch, and at the same time they are reliable and affordable. Good luck!
wearing this again today. i am liking the new strap i put on this Seiko chrono.
Jumped into the smartwatch fray, well smart'ish. Garmin Vivoactive is a compromise between a real smart watch, activity monitor and a golf GPS. I got it for the basic smart features, and the basic golf GPS features in a package that is less than the dedicated golf watches.
Just as the peaches finish coming off, the figs ripen. Two varieties. Yum!
