Some photos of my Arctic Ocean, together with the Ocean Vintage Military and a gen Black Bay.

 

 

 

I like your styles, sir. That blue is nice...

Wooo hooo! Cheers Mike!

talking of classic designs, nice to see an e61 in there

A screwed up ball of duct tape worked like a dream for me today

Nice jacket too!

I really like it too. It looks awesome

I want to say this is between late 50s to late 60s. Manual wind? How's it running? I actually like the dial, it has character.

Yep - it runs totally fine. Gains slightly but not significantly and the reserve is over 24hours. I'm glad you think so too - i feel it could be plain without it!

Andy lau is the face of cyma

*googles Andy Lau.

the movement is the same as another cyma I bought, pictures are from the seller also:

that makes a lot of sense, there's a plexi retaining ring that is loose and spins freely, so perfect for moisture. I've just bought some jewelers glue to fix it down. I never thought water damage could be appealing

It was a bargain and I fell in love with the dial. It has a handwound movement and still keeps good time. I know little about cyma except they they're now Chinese owned.

Anyone know much about them, the age of the watch or what causes the dial to do this?

Thanks for your advice, I'm taking your advice and ordering 16mm from a guy on ebay now as a fix. The original was rivet, if I wanted to re-rivet it - is this something I could do or could a jewelers do it for example?

Hey all,

Hopefully this is a quick fix and that you can see what I'm talking about from the (admittedly poor) photo. I've broken this pin. What's the best way to go about repairing this?

cheers

Ah those are beautiful watches. I especially like the big crown sub. Can you tell me what strap you have put on that in your 1st and 2nd picture?

That's a stunning effort. A serious dream build. What was the time investment to get everything put together?

I couldn't resist either. Has anyone seen what movement is in the case?
