Not a Seiko in sight, damn watch snobs

Thanks guys, i think you've answered the question for me, I'll pass on this one

Gents just need a conformation either way on this Girard Perregaux, as it has an association with Argentina. I've seen to many fakes/cobbled watches coming from there so I'm a little nervous as; i have never seen an unsigned movement from GP; no movement number worries me and the large GP on the dia...

Great choice of watch and Jack will hold your hand all the way, just thought I'd post a pic for you to look at while she's away :grin: http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t172/otr002/All%20Watch/62MAS/file_zpsd381bc42.jpg http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t172/otr002/All%20Watch/62MAS/file_zps03ac3c...

Great watch, this is the recreation made by Gerlach for the Spanish watch forum. This is mine besides a Seiko 6105 for comparison (still has the plastic on the glass) :doh: http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t172/otr002/All%20Watch/Watches/file_zps5c11d049.jpg Lume Shot http://i160.photobucket.com/a...

Love the chamfres on this.

Just stunning and a true classic!

Wearing this one today, as it's off to a new owner tomorrow :crybaby: http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t172/otr002/Heuer/file_zps1696380c.jpg That's gorgeous. Think I'd be crying, too, if I had to see it go. :crybaby: Hopefully something just as nice coming in. :excited: Yep, Just picked it up fr...

My 1970 Proof…

A better view, the last photo looked better on my computer but as usual looks crap on the net

Seiko 5719

Quick question, from what i read in the review the 4 o'clock crown needs to be unwound for the altimeter to work, is this correct?

Yep living off his legacy, so sad

Latest from a seller of watches..........

The item in this auction may be defective but may also work.



Gotta love the bay

I bought mine from Harold for less than $400, can't remember exactly how much. It's a great hunk of a watch and after some finessing it runs around +1sec a day. It's one watch that i just love to wear, for the price and the tough nature it's just a care free watch :thumbsup: http://i160.photobucket....

Hey groovers, just a quick question on COSC watches or watches that may have been tested as chronometer's pre COSC in Europe, I'm particularly interested in watches built in the 1960's. Are the records for the watches that were tested available? Has anyone contacted a company that is still manufact...

This is what makes this forum so good, the levelling comments and good banter, I do like other peoples mod's as it's a reflection of themselves and their thoughts at the time, they built it to wear, good on 'em






You all missed my point.....I bought a timegrapher

No need to reply.......another pilot/milspec/field watch has been reviled (correct spelling). Yep a rant, I'm getting very tired of the relentless homages/mods coming out from anyone and everyone that has an idea of what the latest "retro" diver/pilot/milspec watch should look like. You'd think that...

The reissue is still available.....

Beautiful watch with classic appeal and a well balanced style

I WANT ONE

These first release watches are different in many ways, 21J, notched case, satin hands, waterproof dial and case back and several internal differences.

I also have a March 69 watch and it is identical.

Just to bump my post count and to stir the pot, My Feb 1969, 6139-6000 that predates the release of the first Swiss auto-chronographs.

Thanks gents for all the positive feedback and guidance :thumbsup: I found some new watches to lust over and maybe buy oneday, anyway i bought the Junghans "Max Bill". We'll see when it arrives as to the overall style on the wrist. http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t172/otr002/027-3501-00-big_zpsf...
