It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now

Thanks guys.....I really like the 6105 design. I grabbed good condition all originals when I could. Also have a large 6309 collection to match it.

I rotate between the vintage pieces to give them some wear and keep the movements functional. But the top left and the top right tend to get the most wear.

I tend to gravitate towards the vintage ones first - as still, they are the best. the 6105 case, which is slightly smaller than the 6309, is just very wearable and both the movements in the 6105 and 6309 are workhorses. They also are water resistant - if you switch out the gaskets and pressure test - as functional as the day they were made. I have another 6105 at our beach which i wear there.

I grew up on 6309s, and now wear the 6105 more.

That is THE best Todd, and it shows how much you really do enjoy these ! :salute: :headbang:

It's such an incredible design, so having more than one, or actually a entire
fleet of them makes a lot of sense. The more the merrier as they say right?!! :grin:
This was unbelievably cool to see really. Thank you sir !!!

Nice the 6105 is a bit of an addiction to me. I have owned so many over the years but then something else comes along, I sell it only to buy another...
I think I am on my 5th. Love your collection and have considered the new green willard this place doesnt help me avoid it.
