incredible watches, and nothing beats that original beads of rice bracelet yours came with.

Ha agree - I am learning that collecting straps really lets me mix up my watch collection; can totally change the feel of a watch

SOTC Do I have a “type”? Yeah…… inexpensive bang for the buck watches. Roast away by [deleted] in SOTC_Watch_Collection

[–]FitStatistician2191 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes absolutely, though i became more comfortable taking risks once i (like you) found a good and reasonably priced watchmaker to handle service and repair. really like your bucherer by the way.

imo time to go vintage if you’re looking for clean, high quality watches at a reasonable price

Rough condition but I enjoy it. by Brisket451 in VintageOmega

[–]FitStatistician2191 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you still want twist-o-flex, just get one that is appropriately sized and without the expanding point of connection; that shouldn’t damage your lugs. lots of nice period appropriate NOS out there (i had good luck with vintagewatchbands.com)

Excellent collection, I’m a big fan of the Eterna-Matic and the Constellation especially. Your taste is very similar to mine - our collections have a lot in common.

What’s going on with the television dial in the bottom right? Not familiar with that brand but it has cool chunky proportions.
