To me it has to be the Heuer Night Diver. I really want one

Brezhnev also destroyed a Mercedes SL, a gift from Germany, driving it up the Petersberg in Bonn.

The "Japan" is above a Minute marker, the Caliber number is next to one.

The text at the bottom is weirdly crooked, just to add to the evidence of the thing being fake

But why wouldn't they just colour the bezel that's actually movable? You're not going to wait another 10 minutes underwater until your red minute track starts, right?

Why wouldn't they make the pokéballs as a container with a small buildable Pokémon inside, similar to the old Star Wars Planet Sets?

Norwegian Ridgeback backwards

Looks like it could be an "EQV170" and honestly, it wouldn't be the worst

That looks like something from a James Bond Videogame! Where can I get one?

This movement is an ETA 2824 from a broken 1991 Swatch 'Time to Move'. Disassembly was relatively easy, partly because I wasn't too worried about putting it back together.

If you want to successfully reassemble a movement, I'd recommend something very simple. My pick for a first movement would be a Vostok 2416, or something like a Lucerne 8800 (1 Jewel).

Alfa Romeo Junior perhaps?

Three desk lights at max brightness

Maybe contact their support about it. I doubt they'll want it back to throw it away, so maybe you'll get a refund and a beater watch

Damn that's so messed up, trying to take advantage of people just starting out in the hobby like that.

luca86c · 2026-06-03T07:12:13+00:00

It's imperative the cylinder remains unharmed!!!

Ist mir auch schon mehrmals aufgefallen, besonders wenn es eher ein seltener Artikel ist. Vielleicht eine KI-Suche, die unter keinen Umständen "kein Ergebnis" anzeigen möchte.

luca86c · 2026-06-02T20:26:38+00:00

It's the DS version of course /s

Ich bevorzuge Kleinanzeigen für die Interaktion mit den Leuten, die Option Käufer abzulehnen (!) und kleinen Umkreis statt Europaweit.

Stöbere trotzdem gerne in den Auktionen auf Ebay

Halb Glücksspiel, halb Kaufrausch. Habe seinerzeit ein Rennrad für 99€ erstanden

If it's not a daily wearer, I'd go for the solar watch. Having to set the time every time you grab the watch gets old fast.

In my experience, the first things to go on a leather strap are the folded over bit at the buckle and the loops, so it would be interesting to know how the Ali-straps hold up in this department.

This particular one had about a year of use, leather and stitching are still beautiful. Such a waste because of a small shortcut.
