b16a2 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Well I haven't posted on a wrist check for a while so what better one to get started on again than the last of the year.....
FxrAndy Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Looking good there doc. Not sure what i will be wearing NYE proberbly this but maybe i will change the watch just for a break, this has been on for the past 10 weeks now! (in different designs, firsts sand blasted all over then with a polished bezel, then a brushed case then i changed the dial, finaly happy with it as a daily watch) I gave one similar to my grandfather for Christmas, he was so happy that he can tell the time again and actualy see the numbers. I think the one he was wearing was 34mm gold plate hand wind Rotary or something like that last time i saw him (we live in different countrys) he was so happy my brother had left about 10 min before he got on the phone and called him back to see it.
robertk Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Doc, That Milgaus looks great. Starting the week with my newest acquisition: This one is the Asian version of the Deep Sea Tuesday: B&R Wednesday: Early Daytona

Stephane Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Monday is my 1655 Explorer II with it's new Gen Crown/Tube: A true beauty D. Viva the crown and tube I've been wearing this GMT since yesterday. Keep posting your wonderfull photos By-Tor. The watch might be on top of my list soon @Cats and B16...nice to see you guys Today, it's 3717 but I guess it won't last untill next year I wouldn't mind to wear the PO too Kind regards to all, Stephane
tenacious_b Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Wow; is that gen? If or not, where did you buy it? Wearing this one today
freddy333 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Nothing extraordinary to see here. Looks like a typical 16520, which is a compliment. And I think this is the 1st time I have seen the project in completed form. Beginning the workweek with my usual beater (beater at right)
Harley357 Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Wow; is that gen? If or not, where did you buy it? No - not a gen. It is the "Swiss case" quartz model from Mark Wang. (timeshops.net)
Irontomkidd Posted December 29, 2008 Report Posted December 29, 2008 Took today off so I been lounging in this all day. But this will be my New Year watch.
lanikai Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 Closing out 2008 with these.. Seems like the year was not counted by Seasons but by released dates...
Guest SliceMaster Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 This Explorer II seems to get alot of wristime.... wonder why......cause it
RobbieG Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 Planet Ocean today after alot of threads discussing them...
Toadtorrent Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 40mm Milgauss: I do think this is an under represented watch. I like it. Very nice piece. I saw Angus has one in his "New' listings section with no price. I wonder what the differences are with the one you have: Starting the week with my newest acquisition: This one is the Asian version of the Deep Sea How do you like your Asian Deepsea? I think this is one of the better values out there. For $128...you get the blue lume, big case...and a disposable movement that is easy to replace and readily available anywhere!! It would take a lot of movement replacements to add up the extra $200+ that the Swiss ETA costs...and even more when you consider the maintenance costs of servicing the ETA vs. just doing a movement swap on the Asian! Wednesday: Early Daytona Which version is this one? I'm no Daytona expert...is it the manual wind or fixed 7750??
robertk Posted December 30, 2008 Report Posted December 30, 2008 TT...The Deepsea is definitely great value. I also find these cheap movements as reliable as the "ETA's". I have about 20 of them and have never had a problem over the last 4 years. And replacements are readily available. The Daytona is a 7750. Bought is several years ago and despite it's flaw (pusher not asymetrical) it's one of my favorite vintages.
