Watch Ya Wearing

**pal** · 09-05-2012, 07:03 PM

Nice watches everyone! Cstone and little Big, you guys are killing me.

My watch today is 1967 Seamaster De Ville. This belonged to my late father-in-law and was given to him by his wife as a 25 anniversary present. It was painstakingly restored for me by the "Watch Doctor" Mark Sirianni last year.

That's a great watch Pal and would be a keystone in any collection.
It's a real classic.

Parnis

**cstone28** · 09-05-2012, 08:30 PM

Pal, very nice. Classic and elegant.

I'm learning about so many more brands that I've never heard of here. Countzer0, I've never heard of Parnis. I assume those are retrograde date and power reserve at ten and two O'clock? Is that an actual tourbillon or an opening to the balance wheel?

**CountZer0** · 09-05-2012, 08:46 PM

It's an opening to the balance wheel. I was told at one time that Parnis was using Seagull movement whether that's true or not not I don't know. I have since put that watch on a rustic leather strap and it's in my rotation much more. The power reserve is a nice feature and the watch keeps great time.

Pal that is a classic... The quintessential gentleman's timepiece.

Thanks CountZer0. Do I see a hand above the opening, a second hand? If so what is the third hand on the central pivot?

**CountZer0** · 09-05-2012, 09:02 PM

It does have a cheesy second hand that spins in the opening.... I would rather it not be there.... But it's hard to detect so it's not a huge distraction.

Thank you. I rarely wear the Mako on the stock bracelet. Depending on what I'm wearing, I use Nato's in Navy/White, Navy/Red, Black/Grey, Black/Beige, and Navy/Yellow.
