    £5,600 all in; no box or papers (and an ill fitting strap) but some provenance from auction house so I think a good deal compared to maybe £10k or so from a dealer. I'm a keeper so the papers mean less t me than a physical inspection. It'll probably go for a full service which will be costly but so far it seems to be keeping very good time.

    After some discussion and pointers, I got a new Leather NATO for my Helvetia

    I got a 20mm instead of the previous 22mm one and seems not to clog the watch. It was hand made and a great deal for €30

    I thinks this is a nice combo

    Yep yer man makes some nice straps and for really reasonable prices with it. Well worth supporting IMH.

    I agree with you going down to 20mm. As you say the 22 overpowers and crowds in on the lugs too much. I found similar with my Zenith version.

    And now for something completely different...

    2rxjtdi.jpg

    1920/30's Longines pocket watch made for and issued to the Serbian railway. Stainless steel, 58MM across and a right hefty bugger in the hand. No hairlines, even the bluing on the hands is like new. I love the dial design. Like a miniature station clock. :)

    350uhpk.jpg

    Caseback with a proper steam choo choo, none of this deisel electric nonsense :) and the monogram of the railway company. Most of these I've see coming up over the years the engraving is very rubbed, this one is nicely crisp. Not a great pic of mine though

    14qovp.jpg

    21.54 Longines movement. 15 jewel job, Breguet overcoil, ticks like Big Ben, very solid performer with very little wear. The gilding looks like new and the regulator is smack bang in the middle, which is always a good sign. Only loses a couple of seconds a day.

    Newest purchase...

    PGeJDbY.jpg

    A Steinhart Nav B-Uhr 44 Premium. Only 3 months old, no hairlines, and I got it for a steal on eBay. My first Swiss movement and handwind :D.

    My poor-quality pictures can't do it justice; the sandwich dial and blued hands are gorgeous.

    And the nicest part of all...

    bviX5Oq.jpg

    The inhouse decorated Unitas movement; the Steinhart ST1.

    And a wrist shot to finish things off...

    Thats our living environment,from there we transfer into a diving bell daily to the bottom to work,the chamber complex is housed inside a big ship called a diving support vessel,we are pressurised inside these chambers to simulate the same pressure we work at,typically 150m ,after 3 weeks of working we then decompress for upto 1 week depending on the storage depth,thats when the Helium escape valve comes into it's own,Helium as a gas is much finer than nitrogen so when it's expands it gets stuck in small spaces,a lot of watches blow up on decompression without these valves:p

    Nice to see the watch is getting used properly, my divers are lucky to see a swimming pool...

    And the final piece of the jigsaw arrives, another panerai, i just cant seem to get away from them,

    A new 183, its loverly, of the 'full' size panerai the 45mm radiomir is by far the most comfortable, much more so than the luminor or 1950s case

    bought a few Russians on adverts the other day, need to buy a few nato's, where do ye buy yours?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wibbs


    Ebay pretty much D. I've bought a lot of Natos over the years and there can be some variability in quality, but IMH I buy on price and consider them as a somewhat "disposable" item. Indeed some I've bought for a fiver where as nice as others I paid three times that. Where you can get caught out is on thickness and clearance issues with some watches. EG the Hadley Roma Nato is very nicely made, but is thicker than most and can be a struggle to fit to watches with tight lug/strapbar clearance.

    The cheapest. :D Not a joke TBH. Look for the size and colour(s) you want and set the Bay preferences to list lowest price first. That's what I do anyway.

    Ok... well it ain't a Patek, but it was my first digital watch when I was a kid. Well... not quite, but that's another story...

    A Seiko C359 - 5000 made in August 1979. I wore it for most of my early teens as my "daily" and it really showed the wear. The bracelet was completely fubar and I'm keeping an eye out for a replacement. The case and watch looked like it had been dug out of a tank track and the internals seemed dead. :( So I thought feck it I'll try and restore it. first things first is take it apart. Numero uno always stick parts in a cigar tin. If you don't smoke and you shouldn't, find someone who does and nick one. :D

    2j662bm.jpg

    It was the devil to get apart and was internally encrusted with residue that I'd not like to analyse... The above pic was after the degunging and basic polishing. The movement is strippable funny enough. It's not a sealed unit. So out with screwdrivers, plastic tweezers and alcohol to get rid of the gunge.

    Next up was polishing the case. It being a Seiko it was stainless steel not plastic like Casios etc of the time. Polishing a case is a hard one anyway as it's too easy to remove the sharp edges. This was worse as the edges weren't sharp from the factory. Thus followed a fair while with various fine grades of sandpaper. I only went mechanical with a dremel for the buffing.

    30ua446.jpg

    Not a great shot, but trust me there was a helluva difference from before.

    Some parts of the case had a brushed finish and all of it was worn down. The top and bottom of the case at the lugs and the high part of the caseback. So time to break out 800 grit sandpaper and a straight edge... Can't really see the result from the above case, but the case back shows it better.

    3506sgm.jpg

    That was nigh on polished away before. Three passes of the sandpaper and that was the result. Practice this on spare steel first. There's a bit of a knack to it and you also find stainless steel isn't always the same.

    Next it was stick it all back together, with new seals, gaskets and greased pushers and a new glass. That last part was cheek clenching. Very tight interference fit and I have no crystal press thingie. So I improvised with one of those upright orange juicer things and two blocks of wood. Heath Robinson, but it worked.

    End result
    2m4r76q.jpg

    All now working(inc the light) and looking a lot fresher after 35 years :) Smart watches? Well ahead of ye. :D Now to find the right bracelet.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,318 ✭✭✭✭Menas


    For all you vintage lovers out there.

    A 1952 IWC.
    There is an IWC Cal 89 under the bonnet, this was one of their legendary movements and was in production from the 40s thru to the 70s and graced many a good IWC watch including the Mark XI.
    It gives a lovely feel when winding, a good solid click which I love.

    Some very tough acts to follow, especially with something like a bit average like this - but it's a great beater for holidays and the likes.

    It has a 10 year battery life and a supposedly very scratch resistant face. A NATO is on the way to replace the rubber strap.

    A while back I posted a pic of my Girard Perregaux early quartz with the "man this doob is gooood" 1970's design. Me being me, I had it on a Nato.

    CB got me thinking with this angle
    That's lovely but I'm not sure that the NATO does it justice (though the blue is a good choice). Surely you can find a shorter lizard and then just swap the buckles round?

    Good points as per usual. So I went a looking and found two short straps, both lizard, one black like the original, one a nice brown. Both fit me too. :eek: :) Here it is on the brown.

    id4tiv.jpg

    To my eye it looks slightly better on the brown compared to the black.

    It changes the character of the watch completely compared to the dial coloured Nato. Though funny enough it really dates it and makes it more vintage, more oddball looking for the want of a better word. On the Nato it's still different looking but somehow more modern. It might be interesting on a steel bracelet and there is a nice original one on the bay(that has the same style watch, non working, with it), but would cost me more than I paid for the watch in the first place and would be unlikely to fit me so... I'll wear it for a week more as nature and style intended :) and see if it gels with me. If not, no loss as I have three 50's watches with the same lug spacing that would look v nice on either straps. Result.

    My Victorinox Swiss Army Base Camp, after I finally got a new strap for it. I love this watch, bought spur of the moment a few years back in France, they don't make them any more and it was my dad who bought it. He's not the type to keep the papers for it!


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,183 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wibbs


    It's late, I'm tired, so like the over stimulated child that I am I will tend to witter on... Apologies in advance. :o:o
    ml6ps5.jpg

    Heuer Bundeswehr manual wind flyback chronograph. Issued to the West German forces back in the day(late 60's to mid 80's IIRC).

    Mine is slightly different as it's not an issued one. No BUND markings on the caseback. Unusual enough as you couldn't just go out and buy one from Heuer or their dealers directly until the late 70's. Early one too, sub 1000 case serial number(and polished pushers and crown).

    Originally it was ropier looking than it is above. Showed its age as you might expect. Got a service done by a recommended crowd and they "rejuvenated" it. Wasn't happy at the time TBH, but unusually among your vintage collectors, especially your collectors of this model, New Old Stock is the look the market demands*. Original looking ones with the expected wear and tear go for a fair bit less when selling. TBH That's how I got the above for a "bargain". Not a Peasant Level 1 bargain mind you, but close enough, maybe a Peasant Level 4a? :D

    Fairly solid watch. Good timekeeper. Mine runs around +6 seconds per day. Very easy to read on the fly. One of a long line of military chrono design going back to WW2. The "real deal" as it were that makes something like your average Breitling look far too busy to be of any bloody use in an actual cockpit. Quite an archaic case design where the movement and backcase are one unit, screwed into the main case body.

    These can run between 2 grand and up to 4 grand. Ignore the latter unless Adolf Galland himself wore it in the 70's. Still, they are IMHO of course, scarily undervalued among the Heuer collectors, never mind the wider vintage world. Heuer collectors will pay mad money for a watch that Steve McQueen wore once or twice in a film(and never wore before or since and would be well pissed off with the association if he was still around), yet these watches, an actually military issued flyback chronograph watch with a deep history(and a lot cheaper than modern imitations) goes for an eighth of the price of the above. Funny old world.




    *might it be a cultural thing? I have noticed over the many years of hanging out online on Yahoo groups and such that numbered among them fellow collectors/nutjobs who are German, that they tended to be much more into making vintage look like new, with rechroming and polishing and new hands and the like(They tended to shy away from redials though). Big into restoration and got their kicks from making it new again for the next generation kinda thing. Some of the examples they pulled back from he grave were bloody impressive. Italian collector/nutjobs folks tended to be similar. Whereas with say US and UK and Japanese collectors/nutjobs the more patina/Wabi/"Jayzuz Jim tis fooked" as a look was and is more desirable.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    My Hamilton Khaki King arrived today and I do like it. I would imagine it isn't to everyones taste with the day be displayed in the 12 position, but I am hoping I will find it useful as I often work nights and there would be times when I wouldn't have a clue if it was Saturday or Monday.

    I bought the Hamilton as I was worried that my recent purchase of a Seagull 1963 reissue wouldn't be sturdy enough to be a daily watch. I think the 1963 is gorgeous.

    Hi all,

    Been lurking here for some time, figured I should post something :)

    Picked up the below Seiko Tuna SBBN017 in Tokyo last month. The pic makes it look gigantic on my wrist, not even remotely as large-looking in real-life.

    After much shopping about I had decided to replace my stolen Baume & Mercier with exactly the same one, but at the last minute decided to go with the metal rather than the leather option

    baumeandmercier2.jpg

    baumeetmercierclassimaexecutive.jpg

    which is a nice contrast for my more everyday Steinhart

    or my, only ever used when likely to be neck deep in the atlantic :
    casiogshocktidemoonphase.jpg

    but the new addition is this beautiful Nomos Ludwig mechanical (I'll take some decent photos soon, but after the weight of the Steinhart this ultraslim creation is a real beauty to wear, I don't even mind having to wind it!
    nomosglashutteludwig.jpg

    Bought the Nomos and the Baume & Mercier from Mappin & Webb on Regent St London, along with this Longines automatic for the wife longinesladiesauto.jpg

    a thoroughly enjoyable use of a Sunday afternoon.

    More cheapy Asian goodness. I bought this second hand; I think they sell for around $250 new. It comes with 3 straps (the brown one isn't original) and comes in this nifty case. It has a titanium case with a Miyota automatic movement. It feels very well put together for the cash.

    Have to say I was very tempted too. It's a lot of watch for the money, interesting design too. I really enjoy my explorer
