Really like the looks of those Boctok divers
Wanted to share today's watch of the day with a picture taken in full sunlight, something that has been pretty scare here in Danbury, CT lately.
This is another Bulova in my collection. I really like this Accutron because of the "heart" window in the face that allows you to see some of the inner workings of the watch.

TAG Monaco today. I go on and off "square" watches but I think that this one pulls it off better than most. I have a steel bracelet for this but prefer the blue plastic strap.

Today I'm wearing my entry into the April Chutzpah Challenge...
Interesting looking dial. Is the 99 or double 9 done for fashion, or is there a deeper meaning?
I'm glad you asked. Because until 4 minutes ago I didn't know either. This is from Invicta's Jason Taylor Collection. Wikipedia informs me he was a pretty good linebaker for the Dolphins. His jersey number was 99. He retired after the 2011 season.
I, of course, bought the watch on impulse, after a few beers, being cooped up at home hiding from The Red Death. I wanted a black PVD coated watch and these gold accents brought a little "pop" to it. By Invicta standards, I consider it downright conservative. I am considering putting one of these on it.

Plain old Casio G-Shock in all black from the military.

Wow, that watch is a real beauty. Is it a vintage Russian military diver's watch as its appearance suggests? If so, what was the year of manufacture.

Today it's the 1962 Longines with 30 L movement.

That watch doesn't look bad at all. It probably accompanied you on a great many adventures.

Thanks. It has seen it's share. I purchased it new from a Seiko outlet in 2006. It has traveled all over the place with me. I dropped it onto a marble floor in 2016, denting the case and destroying the movement. It sat for a few years until I decided to make it a project. I sourced a refurbished Seiko 7s26 movement on eBay from the Philippines for $35, took a deep breath, and learned how to replace a watch movement. I broke off some of the lume on the minute hand on reassembly, but it it gave it a bit of a different look. I do appreciate that all the scratches, dents, and scars are simply souvenirs of a life well lived.
Cheers
