Managed to pickup a 22mm Vintage tropic strap
Fitted it last night and worn today - well chuffed

This evening, it's the "why I shouldn't be allowed on eBay after a few beers" watch. Actually, I quite like it.

Re: Non CW of the Day
Somethings that’s been bothering me for a while about the Winston and Walter picture that you regularly post.
How have you not knocked that picture off the wall when getting out of bed?
Or are you less accident prone than me?

That looks great Om. New to you?

The Oris seemed most appropriate for my son's early morning swimming lesson.
Absolutely loving the midsize Aquis, more than I thought I would. Great fit, super comfortable and beautiful sunburst gloss dial.

Really like this watch.
Could you provide a link to the seller on eBay?
P.S. I’ve had a few beers

Re: Non CW of the Day
And now for the cheapest watch on this thread:
I actually kinda like this watch, but it doesn't get too much wrist time. It has a 7s36 movement. Very spartan (not hackable, not windable, not very accurate as it gains about 20 secs a day, but supposedly very durable).
So... yesterday evening, I was talking to my US-based study buddy (we're doing an HTML/CSS/Javascript training together, and I'm her mentor in a Java training). She told me how she used to have a kid's watch, and she would spend evenings looking at the glow-in-the-dark as a kid... she got a bit nostalgic about that (she had a less-than-ideal youth, to put it mildly).
Now, this is a Seiko, and Seikos glow in the dark like nothing else... so
... yeah, I'm gonna send her this. Wearing it one last time before I pack it.
Bought this 15 years ago. It was actually the first automatic I bought. I had only bought hand-wound and quartz watches prior to that. The only auto watch was the Omega Genève I got from my late grandfather.I actually kinda like this watch, but it doesn't get too much wrist time. It has a 7s36 movement.

Man with one watch, always know time. Man with many watches, never sure.

Re: Non CW of the Day
HA HA..no, I'm very accident prone..that's the side of the bed no one gets off of or onto...there's only about a foot of space between that side of the bed and the bedroom wall..btw, both Frenchys love looking out that window...that way they can loudly alert us to passer bys, mail deliveries, grazing deer, etc...
Ebels are a lot like women that lack a lowcut dress that zips up the side..neither gets the love that they deserve..
