Currently I have a Kobold Phantom,an Omega "Planet Ocean" Seamaster(45mm),an Omega Seamaster 007 Casino Royale,a Titanium Omega Seamaster,a Rolex Submariner 50th anniversary(green bezel),and a Swiss Army Maverick II. I have just recently sold my Luminor Panerai PAM 888 GMT and Rolex Daytona(black/silver face/SS bracelet). I will post some pics as soon as I can.

Nemo Posted September 6, 2008 Author Share Posted September 6, 2008 Does anyone have a Omega Seamaster 120 from the late 90's? The one w/o diver's bezel. I would love to have one of those... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seth Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 I don't have one... but I am pleased to report that after 3 trips to Omega they FINALLY got mine running accurately. At least it only cost me $250 once... the rest of the trips were under warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Its called being a dad. You will get puked on, pee'd on and eventually pooped on. Its not the best part, but the best parts make up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Bell Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Nothing too fancy just a $100 Skagen from several years ago. It is light, super thin, and has held up well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 OK, it's time (pun intended) for me to chime in... This a 1939 Ladies Hamilton wristwatch with 10 diamonds top and bottom. It was part of my paternal grandmother's "engagement set" gift from her second husband. The ring was part of the set: half-carat center stone, 28 surrounding stones set in platinum. I wear them often and the watch keeps PERFECT time. The Hamilton was (and may still be) considered a fine-grade timepiece at the time. I can see why--it's in wonderful condition and runs just fine. Grandmother wore it for years (I remember seeing it) and it all but looks new. It's engraved on the back with her initials. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say most watch geeks would still consider that a fine-grade, for sure. Hamilton made some really great watches back then. They've actually gone back to their roots a little in the past couple of years as they're now offering mechanical watches again....very coo stuff.

SiG Lady Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Thanks. Yes, I'd heard that Hamilton had made some sort of come-back or other. Oh, and the watch's body is white gold, and the bezel is really thick glass. Oddly enough--unlike some OTHER 'small' watches--the clock face is really easy to read at a distance! I've been amazed by this little timepiece in every way since I first saw it. Yeh, I like the strap, too. It's a classic piece in every way.

Radical Precision Designs Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) I love fine "time-pieces", especially quality Swiss movements. Above are two of my favorites. The Rolex "red" Submariner is a 1967 piece all original which is my present favorite. The Breitling "Chrono-Cockpit" is in trust for my son, and is no longer made as it was replaced by the slightly larger "Chronomat" model. My daughter is getting (not pictured above) my Rolex Oyster Perpetual "Date" (1991) in Platinum and stainless, fully factory encrusted with over three carats of diamonds all over. I have loved owning and collecting fine time pieces, specially Swiss movements. I have traded and sold a few and others have been stolen from me. My all time favorite was a 1965-7 Rolex "Daytona-Cosmograph" which was stolen from me by Corbo Jewelers in Brick Town N.J. where it was in for routine cleaning and adjustments, when they moved their store in 1990. Their headquarter offices said they had never lost a watch, but to this day they never made good. Yes, I still have my claim ticket !!! (Sorry, I did not mean to go into a rant/rage thing) For daily work time I wear my Geneva TOG stainless (japanese auto movement) which looks identical to the Submariner but only cost me $175.00 and I won't cry too much when it gets snagged in the milling machine, lathe, belt sander or polishing wheel. I also have put in the kids trust a Rolex Cellini, very thin solid gold time-piece formal wear kind of thingy. Oh, yeah ... the gun pictured above is one I built about four or five years ago for a good customer who carries it every day.

Jack Suber Posted October 1, 2008 Share Posted October 1, 2008 (edited) Here is my 1971 GMT Master. My Grandfather apparently left it to me when he died (I was 12) and instructed my family not to give it to me until I graduated from college. A great surprise.

That is a scratch I got crawling underneath my house . I need to send the watch off to get cleaned and have the crystal polished or repaired. I just haven't gotten around to to do it. I want to find a back up watch. Unfortunately, quartz watches die on me within a day. I have digital watches but they tend to clash with a suit.
