Re: LWDS (The Legion of Watch Deal Seekers)

Hope everyone's Monday is swell. I'm sporting this one today. It's a 60s Nivada Antarctic. And it has the cool lugs like the late 50s ones. But it's 36.5mm vs the 34.5mm of the vintage ones. The hands that came on this one when I got it kept falling off. So I put this set on it. Only the hour\minute...

Re: LWDS (The Legion of Watch Deal Seekers)

I uh... I don't know what's compliant here. But this is what's on my wrist today. Gonna send it in for a service. It's running 6 minutes fast per day. This is an early model, so its pushing 60 years old. I can see from the inside of the casebacks it's been serviced at least once in the 80s. So some...

Re: Incoming! What have you got in the mail?

Made a lowballish offer that was surprisingly accepted. I have dug the vintage Nivada Antarctics for a bit. As I got into them, I found the early ones like this are increasingly more expensive, and a LOT harder to find in SS vs gold-filled. Seemingly moreso since the reboot\reissue of the Nivada Gre...

Re: Show your BSH watches

Those look really good, Paul. I'm still wearing this one. I got my 2836 movement for it, and promptly installed the dial and hands 180* off. But it turned out ok, as I've always wanted a LHD watch(i wear mine on the right wrist...) I also installed a screw-down crown and crown tube. I think it's don...

That's one of my "really wants".

And every time I start to get over them someone posts one.

I imagine it won't be long...
