    Not sure if done before but after a quick search I couldn't find a "today I'm wearing thread" as I've seen on other watch forums.

    Anyhew maybe a bit of fun so I'll get the ball rolling :)

    My Poljot 1970's with the 2614.2H movement.

    When I looked at that watch first I thought it was like a dogs puke with all the different colours, but I've looked back at it a few times now, and it grows on you.

    Cool watch.

    Yea it looks less garish in the flesh. For some reason in photos the blues and greys clash depending on the light.

    That's only gorge Art. I love that dial design. In keeping with the pilot's watch arena, today I was wearing this;
    239600.jpg
    My early 1930's Zenith centre second pilots watch. 41mm across with big old crown for winding with gloves. Just a little before the time of the B-Uhr's. Dunno what was happening with the NATO strap though. :o:) I may wear it again tomorrow. It's very comfortable on the wrist funny enough, even with the crown.

    Very funky BNF. I like it I have to say. Kinda modern steampunky in some ways.

    Well today I went for real steampunk,*sniffs haughtily at the new trendies* rocking it old stylee :D

    240223.jpg
    1916 George Stockwell cased in silver half hunter(the protective front pops open via the button below the six, a la pocket watch) "trench watch/wristlet" retailed by Mappins of London. Have to say I do like the silver as a case material. It's soft and tends to tarnish alright, but is a very "organic" feeling material, constantly changing in hue.
