Stan, don’t you know the first law of physics? Anything that’s fun costs at least eight dollars”
-- Eric Cartman

“To absent friends, lost loves, old gods, and the season of mists; and may each and every one of us always give the devil his due.”
― Neil Gaiman, The Sandman

I bought a cheap watch from a crazy man
Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong
And If I have trouble the warranty said
Breathe In, Breathe Out, Move On

- Jimmy Buffett

Hamilton 600 Super-Compressor, with a H-694A movement (modified ETA 2472), ca. mid-sixties:

With lume (!)

No, no re-lume, just 30 sec shutter speed... ;)

Wrist-shot on a somewhat colorful NATO-strap:

My SM300, ref. 165.024, cal. 552, ca. 1965:

Image

Does a regatta chrono count? In that case:

Image

Breitling Co-pilot Yachting, ref. 7650, venus 178, ca. 1969. Pardon the wrong lug size.. :oops:

I am picking up my brand new macro lens this afternoon. Better pics to follow... :fro:
