I just checked and the Certina I'm wearing today, made in 1975, qualifies as vintage.

Omega f300 today, off for a stroll around the antique shops so thought it would be suitable.

Just did a power reserve test on my watch (so now I can wear it again!)

Fully wound at 8:15am of the 29th...

Image



And stopped 1:15am of the 31st.

42 hours on the dot. Watch wiki says it's good for 47 hours out of the factory so this is a 12% loss after 40 years - I'll take it!
