For leaving me the sweepings from Mr Saitama's floor I wasn't going to buy any more watches for a while as I knew I'd got big car bills coming. But the Devil made me look on Evilbay one night. Having completed my birth year collection I was just looking to see if I could find a better July as it has a bit of dial damage. Instead I found this one from my birth month and year. It looked a bit sorry and worn, so I thought I'd try to get it as a beater for work. When it arrived today it appears to be in much better condition than the super close up auction pictures would have you believe. I tried to take some photos but it's a pig to get any decent ones. It's far from perfect but I'm well chuffed. Bunged it on a strap I had in my box, and I'll look for a better one.

That strap suits it well. Hard to find a better one perhaps.
Congrats !

Mmm... Huh? What? I must have fallen asleep! That does look nice, I really like the outer ring on the dial! - Thomas
