Anyone into watches?

Another vintage Omega

 

Anniversary limited edition Carrera

 

Landed a pair of 15 inch Browns! Broke out the Cobra band.

 

I live Bulova

 

Awesome piece

 

Started collecting in 2021 (whoops lol). Small, but quality collection going on here

 

Excellent pieces.

 

Rolex: fish with it,
cook with it

 

Yep, pretty sure thats the best thing Ive ever eatin in my life.

 

All these old man Rolexis.

jk

Had to post my new addition (Garmin Epix Pro Sapphire) that is self illuminating and has saved me for getting lost on the woods, even found me a restaurant once where i had no service.

Has a built in flashlight too, even on red! lol

 

Hamilton X-Wind

 

Solid watch.

 

Playing around with a 93150 bracelet. Its authentic and has stretch.

 

This bracelet is marked "S" which means its a service bracelet, whatever that is. And W8: made August 1995.

 

That means it's not original, but was replaced during servicing.

 

I got the 593 20mm endlinks too for the Sub. The 19mm aftermarket Im using in the last pic I had to file.

 

Look how much just the endlinks go for?

 

While I'm a grandfather now, this was given to my great grandfather at some point in his career. It has always been kept in a felt bag and from what I can tell, it's never been used or polished.

I have no clue what it may be worth.....it's just cool it's in mint condition.

 

Very nice. Family heirloom?

Duh...I didn't read your comments at first, just started looking at the watch...

 

If you haven't already done so, you can get a lot of information from the serial number, and also from the serial number on the movement (which will be different). It looks like it was made 1900-1915.

 

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check into it.

 

Looked it up by the movement serial number and it looks like 1889. I saved a few pages so I'll be sure to dig some more.

 

The case could be about the same, or it could be a year or two later. It's amazing how many they used to make back then.

 

7205 14k?

 

Inherited this one from my great uncle

 

I bought a broke one missing the clasp. Looks like someone ripped it off their wrist.

 

I dont like the gold glasp anyways. Just gonna use my stainless. Its missing one $500+ 57 gold endlink, so I opted for an aftermarket one. The links are hollow riveted blades!

 

Im pretty sure I can "mend" the split clasp end with some "JB" weld and a piece from this link. And use a compression pin as a rivet for the aftermarket 57'.

 

Here's a shot of it. Its got stretch. I actually prefer them that way.lol
Swiss Gold! 32 grams.
