Inbound now. A couple of vintage beauties. Quartz Bulova and an automatic Timex. Not particularly rare, but also delightfully affordable and fun.

Love the white dial one. Nice find. Seiko 5 finder tells me it's a SNX121 but it looks like there was also another similar one with a jubilee, SNK131. I've spent too much time perusing that site. It just reminded me that there are supposedly old 5s out there with thunderbird or engine-turned bezels but I've never found them.

Damnit, someone actually reads my posts! Yup, Hamilton for sure. I had my eye on a Bulova from the same seller, but we couldn't work it out.

Perhaps it’s a Bulova homage...

Seiko Presage SRPC97J1 Fuyugeshiki which apparently translates to "winter scenery". SARY103 is the alternative reference. I really love looking at this dial. Took it off the bracelet right away and put it on a spare strap I had laying around but I think it deserves something better and a little different. I'm thinking 🍊🦎

I believe this gem is thanks to Boston Charlie's deal post. Really liking that wide mirror bezel, it's going to be fun. Infinite photo possibilities.

I've been wearing this watch most of the week. Definitely a nice CW summer sale find, thanks to the heads up thread.

The bezel is starting to get a nice patina, the case is lagging behind a bit.Image
