So I recently came into a bit of money and I thought to myself hey that watch is pretty sweet. (Zenith Chronomaster T Open 2009) So I ebayed Zenith Chronomaster expecting you know around 500 for one of the lower ends, I wasn't expecting that one to be 500 far from actually, but man are they expensive. 500 on ebay can only buy a replacement strap for one of those lol. Guess that money will go towards cans.

You should also keep your eye open for those LVMH sales as well as the used forums. Zeniths can be had at great discounts at both areas.

I've finally mustered the money for at least something, and when yobokies gets his sapphire crystal back in stock, I'm going to order his military modded Seiko 809 (shown below, except I want one without date dial and with domed AR sapphire crystal).

I was going to post that too, but figured I better look through to make sure it wouldn't be a repeat. I love mine.

Great watch, by the way. I wear one most days and (IIRC) JP Numbers has one, too.

Yeah, they're really cool military watch mods. Reminded me of the Lum-Tec C-series (of which are pretty much equally cool and I think more rare)-

LÃœM-TEC - C series 38mm
