Nice! I used to have an El Primero Striking Tenth and despite owning it for a few years, I never really got on with it and eventually flipped it.

While we are on the subject of chronographs, I much prefer my Ebel and Omega chronographs over the aforementioned Zenith.

Here's my Ebel 1911 BTR:

And a look at the Lemania movement:

Too much for me to fathom! I got it because I liked the colours and how chunky it was.

Here's a Bulova Watertite that is so old it doesn't have the name on the dial and they don't have any record of it on the online Bulva collectors site: There used to be radium on the hands but it's come off one. Self-winding, shock resistant, anti-magnetic and water tite.

Sorry to hear of your health issues and wish you well.

I bought a few Zeno watches about 20 years ago when they were really cheap and easy to get to South Africa.
I remember them being decent quality but took forever to sell...
Might still have one lying around.

LOL - now that's a statement from someone who has a lot of watches.

I gave away 60-70 watches from my Soviet Era and G-Shock collection and only have a few left. The money didn't mean anything to me and it was more valuable to see the reaction of the people I gave them to. The people who did and did not appreciate it were easy to tell apart.

Too easy sometime. I gave a girl a Limited Edition Adult Swim Dethklok G-Shock and she sold it to buy booze before the day was over.

Yes, its a pleasure to deal with people who have the same passion. Mine is (sadly) gone. Now i‘m even more into audio

Enjoying this PAM0074 too much to bother changing it!
Panerai really used to do a great job of finishing the Luminor hands.
My photographic skills are primitive but hopefully this pic gives an idea.
