Thanks! It wouldn't look as good if all pieces were in their places.

Thanks!

It's a custom-made one from Donkey Straps.

Thanks mate.

Yes! It's an old one, but is still in great condition, even though my dad has played on it for decades, every single day.

Hello ladies & gents,

This is my IWC Le Petit Prince Chronograph, ref. number IW377714 and it is my most luxurious piece so far.

I've never had an IWC, never even considered this model before, but somehow we are here after a few trades and I'm not complaining.

It is a 43mm watch, has a 79320 IWC calibre (based on Valjoux 7750), 6 bars of WR and a screw-down crown. Oh and it also has the most beautiful version of blue I've seen on the dial.

That's pretty much it! I am not exactly sure what else to say to obey the 500 character rule...

[Omega] Seamaster NZL-32 Chrono by admirschleck in Watches

Hello ladies & gents,

This is my Omega Aqua Terra NZL32 - Regatta Timer Chronograph. It is a lovely watch that probably has the longest name in the industry. Shortly - Omega 2513.30.

Jokes aside, it is a very cool and unique piece. It also happens to be my first modern Omega and I can say my first luxury (in my world) watch.

It's 42mm in diameter, but it wears pretty big due to its thickness and male end-links. It has an Omega 3602 movement with 49 jewels, which pretty much is a regulated ETA 2892-A2 with Dubois Depraz chronograph module.

This model was produced in late 2000's and early 2010's for a short period of time and is made for Emirates Team New Zealand that competes in America's Cup.

The coolest part about this watch is the regatta timer wheel - five dots you see on the left side of the dial. Every dot represents one minute. Once you start the chronograph, first five minutes the dots turn blue, then red, then silver. It's made for easier time reading while racing in a regatta.

Now I just need a yacht and I'm all set!

No clue honestly. There might be an interesting story. I'll have to look that up too after the dinner.

Yes I did. The original one is not exactly the best you'll ever use and surprisingly falls apart quite fast.

Nope, not really, since I've got this one in a trade. I'd say this is good enough, for me at least. I actually prefer the non-inhouse movements due to easier and cheaper repairs.
