This is a great picture as usual. I get the Weslyan University, but which one, I can't quite read the name.

Some of those old Soviet watches look pretty cool.

Very nice. Do you prefer watches on your right wrist?

I am guessing he does, for the same reason I do.

Lefties of the world UNITE!

Nice watch! I like the white thread and the unusual position of the sub-dial and of course it is a Panerai!

Thanks, I also like to swap the brown strap with a black croc strap that has white stitching for more formal occasions.

This is a great looking Seamaster! If you ever want to get rid of it . . . .

Thought I would give the Citizen a break, and go with a chunk of Swiss stainless steel.
Rockin' the Luminox today.

Soon after the Berlin wall was dismantled, literally bucket loads of these watches and all sorts of other Soviet-era military and government stuff and ornate brass fixtures and fittings were being sold by entrepreneurs mainly camped out near the Brandenburg gate. 5-10 Marks was the going price for a watch with a big discount for bulk buys. I think that I paid more for the strap than the watch itself. There was quite a feeding frenzy!

I like your Claddagh and your watch and your BL is making me thirsty! This is one classy picture.

To be at the right place at the right time... very cool.
I heard it was the same with cameras.

DS/B MCS, what brand watch is that? What is the model's name?

 

[ogopogo]

It's a Seiko. Not sure which kind though, maybe an orange monster?. It's been "pimped" ... err, I mean modified. I really like it.

What were you saying?

What were you saying?

Look at that bling... now, that's pimped

It started life as a Seiko SKX 007.

The dial, hands, and chapter ring were ordered from Bill Yao at Mark II watches. I wanted a watch to wear to Clemson games, but didn't want to drop the coin on a preloved Doxa.

Like the Seiko Black or Orange Monster it's a great value priced automatic.
