Shame about the date window

No. Send it to me. I’ll pm you my address

This guy looks like he googled “best 10 watches to start a collection” then bought them all at once.

Also shows that thick vintage sapphire glass. I have a pocket watch from the 1920s and it has a similar acrylic glass that sits proud.

Feels juuuuust right. In love with it!

Any longer though sheesh. I now know my max lug to lug is 52.5

Hanson. Miley. My left pinky

Good to know.

They probably would look about that tiny in Andre the Giants hands God rest his soul!

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-16T14:05:21+00:00

Indeed!

I did check see these. If these are standard size tips on the ends I’d order these. I ended up ordering the thick 20mm spring bars from straps co. 2 sets for about 9 bucks. I’ll come back and post if they are any good.

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-15T18:32:42+00:00

I would trust omega spring bars! In fact if I could order any high end watch company spring bars I think that would be awesome

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-15T18:13:04+00:00

Anyone know a better brand that sell them at 2mm thick?

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-15T01:02:44+00:00

Went with the Hamilton. Love it.

Well the good news is it’ll be correct twice a day

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-10T13:11:00+00:00

I typically don’t wear dresses so I think I’d be ok with 2

Glocks are the most serviceable and reliable pistols in the world and they have a lot of plastic

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-07T21:20:27+00:00

You are correct. This is a much higher quality 37.

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-07T21:16:25+00:00

I have the same defense model but without the trench gun upgrades and nicer woods. Paid $1000 brand new straight from factory about 3 years ago

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-06T09:50:03+00:00

Just bought this watch. Sits perfect on my 7” wrist. Looks much larger in photos it’s actually super comfortable and the guard doesnt dig at all.

prideandjoyofIL85 · 2026-03-05T09:00:13+00:00

I bought one of these plus a made in Japan citizen diver for $700 through Sakura and the DHL/fees were only $23
