I’ve just had my 1 year good service award! 

I know @SSTEELhad some, but I don’t know if he’s sold them all. Maybe worth an ask?

@mysterytour you need to be a vip supporter to sell here. 

Whilst waiting for Micky @SSTEELto finish my gen (parts) Mitsukoshi build, I’ll be wearing this. 
 

Sorry mate. I missed your last post. Looks better with the gen bracelet though. 
 

Here’s the white franken. 
 

That’s looking good mate. I’m glad you’ve built another one. Sorry to steal your last one: it’s sitting nicely in my little collection. Your new one definitely needs the correct bracelet though. Post up some more photos once you’ve got it. 

Yes, sadly it seems true. I’ve heard that some factories may not reopen.

Amen to this! on the side note, can I buy back my Omega SMP or its remains? LOL

If I sell any of my Seamasters you’ll be the first to know. 

Always buy the seller before the watch, especially if you can’t view it in person. I’ve bought plenty of watches online. I always ask for extra photos and if the seller isn’t forthcoming I just walk away. 

I like that. ^

I agree with Mike. Get the vaccine as soon as you can. I have Covid last summer and whilst I was a lucky one with minimal symptoms I still had the AZ vaccine when offered. 

That is nice Mike, I just wish they did it in a smaller size. 

After over 70 years serving his country to both his wife the Queen and as a Royal Naval officer, Prince Philip had died at 99 years of age. He fought in WW2 and was an RN officer onboard my friends fathers ship. Whilst often misunderstood, he was one of a kind.

Welcome. Hope you enjoy your time here

RIP Murray Walker. A great motorsport commentator has left the circuit. A real loss to mankind.

I am semi retired now to the watch collecting game, I am just enjoying my gen SMP 300m Co Axial quartz version.

I might be interested in scoring some franken SMPs if there are available watches, I am contemplating to get a speedy moonwatch with the hesalite crystal as my last dance and then its total sunset curtains closed for me at that time. looking at the second hand market, got dang those used once from Japan are very tempting to get.

 

Do let me know if you are ever selling one of your frankens mate!

I have most of what I want, so I’m similar to you. It takes a special watch to spend money these days. My only project at the moment is converting my gen Speedy to a Mitsukoshi. 
 

If I let any of my Omegas go, I’ll be in touch 😉

And today’s.....

This is definitely mounted on the 90s to 2000s smps as far as I can remember and pretty much your combo is chronologically bang on. How is the franken I've sold you? Is it done already?

Thanks for stating it's period correct. Your old one is re-cased in the one above. It's a new gen case I picked up on one of the forums. Your old case from it is now housing a gen white dial. Both are lovely watches. Have you built another franken yet?

Had this 2yrs and still love it. If not more than when I first picked it up. Future classic right here, never selling!

Indeed. These are lovely.

Looking great with that OG leather strap with a double ridge kernow!

It's a gen strap that I've used on my Seamaster Chronograph for year's. Not sure what model it's for as it fits ‘okay’ but not perfect. 

Love the Mitsukoshi. I have one in build. 

You keep fighting the fight Mike, we’ll hold the fort here.

It is an AliExpress-fantasy-watch. But the role model is clearly an omega. Good quality. And cheap (70 Euro)

Ah, yes. I think I remember seeing them on Ali. They look a cross between an Aquaterra and a Bond era GMT. Good catch as it looks good. 

Post some photos when it arrives please.
