Everyone else have off today?
Are you playing Sanford and son too?
Today's Seiko cat tip of the day: "Never put a fat cat on a "crash diet". It could result in liver disease."
Yesterdays Seiko cat tip of the day: "A Calico cat is a white cat with red and black patches; a tortoise shell cat is a black cat with red or orange patches."
One of these watches could have tied into yesterdays theme as well.
Whats the point of an s sapphire crystal if you are going to put an external AR coating on it that gets all scratched up and looks like a worn out mineral one?
And then make the shit so tough that it cannot be removed chemically or by manual force?
But yet somehow it scratches so easily

This one came in the mail yesterday.
Too bad I wasn't there and no one bothers to check the mail except for me.
Luckily no Northsiders were hitting up mailboxes looking for packages and checks to steal.
Sapphire crystal, Seiko VH31 mecha-quartz sweeping movement, evil screw down crown, stainless steel case and solid link and endlink bracelet.
All for $25 shipped to your door.
No more watches for me.
This one is a gift for someone else.

Rainy day. Two totally appropriate watches to wear out in the weather.

Very beautiful and elegant pieces! The background view is also very nice. Wear them in the best of health, Comrade.
Serdal.

More bells it is.... The 4006-602x. This is the only bellmatic that had a red seconds hand, and one of two model runs that had no gold colored option (the other being the 4006-600x).  And it is also one of the "shortest" sets - I believe these three make a full set  |

Today's pair for double-down December are aviation-related chronographs with rotating bezels from the 1960s. On the left is a Gallet Flying Officer (Landeron cal 149) that was owned by WWII fighter pilot Jack Barrett (he received the watch in 1967 to commemorate 20 years with the regional bank he co-founded after returning from Europe). On the right is a Nivada Grenchen CASD (Valjoux cal 92).  Lt. Jack Barrett as a fighter pilot, the P-51 Mustang he flew in combat, and the restored WWII fighter plane he flew at air shows.    True Gems you got there Sir. Always admired that ....Nivada Watch but never have seen one yet. |
