Morning TWF

 

Good morning, it is Saturday 10th in the DSSD household......... now going to change the date!

 

 

Rough and tumble watch today to sweep up a load of leaves.
Now I'm not rich enough to own trees, but apparently all the leaves are mine!

 

Seiko might sell more of these if they took a picture as well as you. Always amazes me how much brands suck at showing us the product. All those cartoonish white background images they obsess with probably cost them a fortune in lost revenue.

 

Morning

 

Good morning, another of my Cosmotrons for todays exciting trip to the supermarket, from September 1971

 

This is a lovely looking watch, I love the case shape and crosshair dial, simply gorgeous

 

Morning all.

 

As we've had two Bertucci watches so far, I'm going for the hat-trick 😁
Have a great weekend!

 

I almost succumbed to putting mine on, but managed to resist 🤣

 

Disliking the Black bay both for its "snowflake" hand, ubiquity and price . I was delighted to find the NTH Amphion vintage Gilt

 

All dressed up to be a Taekwondo referee in Croatia

I like that there's no day or date on it. Can never be wrong!

 

Are you participating?!

 

Bonjour all 👍🙏

 

 

Good morning 🌞 😇.

 

Morning all

 

These I’ve always liked .. 👍🥂

 

A bit of carbon fibre for me today:

 

This one for me today.

 

A do nothing day.

 

Late to the party (just got up)

 

The ubiquitous Black Bay for me today 😉

 

Morning folks.
Seiko 5 today.
Have a grand weekend all 👍

 

This is a very rare watch ...

It has a Miyota 9xxx movement - that's not the rare part ...

And it has a tapered bracelet with butterfly clasp and no micro adjustment - and (so here's the rarity) - it fits perfectly!

Today I will mostly be wearing this rather good condition early 1970s Seiko 5 Thailand market. (See day window). I bought this off one of the Indian watch dealers on ebay about 10 years ago. You used to be able to pick up vintage Seiko 5s for under £20 from these dealers but the prices have risen considerably as the price of new Seikos has risen and the interest in mechanical and automatic watches has grown. These days You have to be a bit careful of some of these dealers who will create parts bin watches but back then there was little reward/effort and you can still find gems if you are careful.. and if not then it's not like getting ripped off on a fake Tag or Omega.
I love the bonkers dial and the incredibly weird chain link indicies. This was the glory day of the Seiko 5.. just before the Quartz killed cheap autos. I don't know what they were smoking in Japan but some of the dials from this period are simply insane.

 

FX today.
