Nice on mesh Saint!

Here's the Date watch- little brother to Seafoam's DJ Mine dates from 1966 or so and the silver aged to oyster or light cream- this was fairly common on DJs and Dates during that time frame

My hobby turned into a business, and its never ending when it comes to tools, and equipment, there's always that one tool you need lol

Well...that was only for the watches...she's not asking about my bicycle addiction yet...

Little late to the party. This today

Re blast from the past... Today an Ellipse could pass for a lady watch when worn on a leather strap. I had one (18kyg) in 1998 on a full size integrated bracelet with the manual wind cal 23-300 and it looked like new but I only paid scrap gold value for it from a watch trader (he did not think much of them either). Imho it was not much of a watch...the 23-300 is fragile as a raw egg and the size of the watch was out of style even back then. Since I do not wear this type of watch and do not care much for Patty Philly watches I traded it even for a nib rolex 16233 with a diamond dial. When I got the watch I had it c/o and ordered a new sapphire crystal and 18k crown for it from H Stern in NYC (had a connection back then) but did not put the crystal or crown on it and still have them in the box they came in...need to put them on eBay. Unless a common PP can be purchased cheap enough to flip, I would pass on them especially since parts are not available, 'factory service' is absurdly priced, and imho they are too fragile to wear outside the house. Like I said before...I consider them to be Country Club or Pimp watches.
