imgur.com/gallery/FdnTukE <- hope imgur links are ok? My current top 11: - Seiko helmet - my beater - love it. Stops occasionally so it needs a service
- The blue Seiko 5, I recently polished the glass and it's come out really well
- The almost pogue - it's nice but it won't run for 24h without me wearing it full time
- Chronostop - my old beater. I stopped wearing it (dropped it) and after I got it fixed I was a little over it. I once wore this watch, whilst broken/stopped, to an interview because it used to make me feel really good (got that job). I've got the original clasp (nu27) and I got steveostraps to make me a new strap, which is lovely.
- Buren - skinniest watch of its time I think iirc?
- Gold led, I bought this 40 years ago for £10 (a fortune then)
- Triumph, I reckon it's ww2
- Ed White speedmaster (don). It's all original, bar the pushers, but I never wear it because I'm scared to wreck it. It's a bit of history though
- Couple of old non-seiko chronos. I like both of them. They're just fun
I've got a couple of other interesting bits and bobs which I'll post at some point if you're interested. I've also just bought my grail (6139 7010) - which hasn't arrived yet!! will post once it's been cleaned and serviced
Thanks,

Thanks, to Wrist Sushi Mr Donkey Certainly, links are fine particularly when they show us that you have fine tastes in watches. The digital LED watch is something that I believe everyone should have an example in their collection. It's just an historic piece of early quartz horology. Please feel free to join in and don't hesitate to ask questions. We have some really knowledgeable people here
