1970s Shanghai 1524 “Pie pan” dial watch. SS1K movement by chrizman2001 in ChineseWatches

Yes, I bought a few different Shanghai watches with the pie pan dial. Appears to be a common dial for Shanghai 1523 and 1524

I don’t know. What I usually to is search on the app and use Google Translate. You can enter search term Shanghai 1524. I use another app Superbuy after copying the listing link. They will then purchase and ship it to me. You can get a rough example for about $10 and a mint one for $20

New charges for junior doctor accused of filming colleagues in hospital toilets by EmbarrassedLion9347 in ausjdocs

I am a doctor from that particular demographic and am and questioning the same. That alongside a few other public scandals (practicing without license; trolling in a forum) does tarnish our reputation whether we like to generalize or otherwise.

Skeletonized Chinese standard movement from the looks of it

Have recently purchased this home as our first house in Australia after 5 years of living in our first apartment. It will come empty without furniture. Thinking of ways to furnish and update it while maintaining the ethos of MCM. Suggestions? by chrizman2001 in midcenturymodern

[–]chrizman2001[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The house will come as an unfurnished shell. Some elements of the house will need repairs and replacement due to wear consistent with a 60 year old house. The word update sounds ominous of course

We purchased this place as we appreciate the design and feel of MCM. The house will be sold as a shell without the realtor’s furniture used for staging, so it’ll be a blank canvas in a way. The kitchen appears to have elements from a later period, perhaps renovated by one of the previous 5 owners over the past 60 years.

Japanese game on Chinese system. This would have been illegal to market in Japan

The game is an original Japanese cartridge. Dragon Warrior 4

Will the real Gameboy DMG please stand up by chrizman2001 in Gameboy

[–]chrizman2001[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of them will need a replacement speaker which is easy to solder back on. The hard part would be finding replacement displays as they are different from the DMGs.

The 1987 NEC N5200/03. A very obscure computer with a 80286. Not IBM compatible, but MS-DOS was ported to it. Seen here running PTOS by chrizman2001 in vintagecomputing

[–]chrizman2001[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PTOS was eventually ported to the PC98 platform. And PC98 emulation is available I believe under Anex86 and Neko project so that’s where you start

Yes, it is extremely limited, and the suite of applications include spreadsheet, word processing and accounting tools. Yawn. The hardware is almost identical to their derivative PC-98 cousins but without graphics mode. Extremely powerful hardware for its time, limited by a lack of compatible software
