26 years ago today one of these daffodils randomly popped up in our front yard. So a special watch to go with a special date and flower

Well, this 85xx started running after I removed the stem for inspection (broken, so I'll need a new one). I modded the watch with a long crown, which allowed me to pull the old stem out and made possible to operate between the modes. I'll have it like this while waiting for the correct parts I really like the design and I think the first time I saw it, was when inboost was wearing it in WRUW. I could not pass the opportunity, when I saw it on a local buy/sell platform last week!

this is the NH35/36 time of the month, i wear two watches per day, as these new movements don't require as much exercise, i think...when i get to the vintage ones, they get a full 24 hours of being on the wrist...yesterday afternoon and this morning: Namoki Dual Crown with 011 dial & black "skx" hands Titanium maranez with Yobokies Army hands

9942-8000 Great dial on this one - the pattern causes brown shading to appear and shift across the dial depending on what angle you view it from. It's actually uniformly cream with no brown.

Louis longbike - Louis - If you're posting from the website, our fab site admin Groundhog66 has got image-hosting set up for the forum now, and it works a treat. Look for the Add image to post button on the upper right of the create post window, just above the SMILIES button. It'll put a thumbnail of your pic right where you have the cursor when you click the button. Cheers! mnem "Very helpful..." Chibila thought to himself; "...Very helpful indeed."
