Funny enough with an odd size like 19mm, I prefer to slightly under strap it and go for 18mm. Maybe because down the years looking at vintage military issued watches on their original straps/bonklip bracelets they tended to under size them.

Yeah, I had the same thought after I fitted it. If I was ordering another I would go with the 18mm I reckon. But at the same time it's not terribly noticeable when you're wearing it, and it does hold the watch body in place well.

Bought today to replace Seiko Solar Chronograph SSB313P1.

My everyday watch. Casio edifice ECB-500D-1AER

Time to give my ancient big bruiser Omega (Seamaster Chrono Diver I think) a run. The sub dial hands have faded but the watch is running fine, I might get them replaced/painted when service is required.

Hi everyone I'm new to this part of the forum. I was active on wus for a few years and then migrated over to intlwatchleague with the mwc guys.

My collection is currently around 20 watches and I am going to start back into a rotation to wear them all.

I'll post a picture of each different watch as I wear them so hopefully this will motivate me to keep on rotating.


Today's watch is my Gruppo Gamma Bronze Vanguard, I have it about 3 years and its been my favourite the whole time.

SNIP no quoted pics.

Wow. I was just reading a comparison between this and the Explorer II to see which one I prefer and your one pops up in the forum.

Its a peach. Wear well :cool:

Saw this one on watchuseek earlier in the week and I thought sure why not. Nice grab and go white dial quartz diver, apparently 8-10 year battery life. Straight on the wrist and off to the beach

That Parnis is beautiful, what's the model number?

Kintarō Hattori

It's grown on me from my initial not liking it at all. The issue that I had the other day hasn't occurred again for whatever reason.

I've been tempted to pick up an Invicta automatic diver to modify it... I might have a look for a used one and go from there!

Thanks, I'm not sure of the model number I got it second hand a few years ago

Rocking this today.



Old school French LIP (in house)quartz from 74. It would originally have sported a "suede" brown strap. Tres Chic in the 70's, but now has a Portuguese cork strap I got for another watch but it looked pure gank on that so sits much better on this. Big old thing, 40mm and around 10mm thick. The early quartz movements were large, so many cases are that lugless design to accommodate them. Which is very 1970's anyway. Most early quartz have a loud tick, these don't funny enough. Barely audible.

Very weird sentence, but here goes: That's a nice Parnis.

Is it a homage?

Not a direct one but mimicking the iwc spitfire with ardoise dial
