Run yer shaver across that fuzzy band and it'll be good as new.

I bought a Zeno for my wife from Eddie for Xmas one year.

"You mean I have to reset this every time I don't wear it for 3 days?"

Her last watch purchase was a $12 quartz from Target. At least...

Now you've done it - you'll end up by a watch designed by a committee

Only off to shower, weekly cycle, mixture of quartz and auto. I have a very low opinion of people who can afford a watch, don't wear one, and ask me what time it is. :pukeright:

I'm far from an expert but did have personal experience with a 45-year-old Cyma that I bought. The case is virtually perfect, and it worked fine for about 6 months, then would just stop running at...

I think that the appearance of the watch on your wrist is the important thing. I've never been a fan of having one arm longer than the other because of the weight of the watch. I recently read a...

Don't forget that the post that sticks up may create significant tension when closely involved with a significant other. :twisted: Might require some occasional maintenance, too.

I'm wearing an Elgin automatic purchased by my father around 1965. He died in 1975 and I let the watch lie in a drawer for 25 years. I took it out 4 years ago and wear it about once a month for a...

I have a 45-50 year old Cyma automatic in excellent cosmetic condition that stops at random intervals. I've brought it to 2 local shops for service, and both tell me that nothing can be done since...

24/7 except for shower. Rotate once a week and Goldbird on Sunday or other special occasions. I still think it's cool to see the great lume at 3AM on Eddie's speedbirds.

Well done!

Approaching this as an amateur pilot, and assuming the primary purpose of the watch is as a tool rather than to impress my non-flying friends:

Zulu time function.
Alarms are inaudible in a noisy...

Timex quartz :oops:

Left the goldbird at home for a rest

There's an old saying with a lot of truth that it's difficult to scam an honest person. What is anybody thinking that's paying $75 for a watch with a "retail price" of ten times that?

How does that "tachymetre" work? The graduations are not linear, but look like an old slide rule. :?:

SB2 all week - love it every time. Waiting for GB2.

Too big - max for my wife is about 25mm. Date is not essential. I don't think she cares for black, either.

Awww, now look what you made me do - I'm drooling all over my nice white shirt. :oops:

GB2 Ivory with brown strap to Chicago. Ouch on the exchange rate :(

My cheap Pulsar quartz stopped working in the shower a while back. Not much water-proofing there. :?

I opened it up and let it dry out for a couple of days, and it started right back up when I...

I know that good moisture proofing and the use of wear resistant bearings such as jewels is important for this, but what else?

And when you're buying a watch, how do you know about the other...

Cyma NavyStar, about 50 yrs old, bought from Eddie

Great bunch of engineers, you guys... I should have you work on my car. :roll:

A local watch repair shop is trying to sell me a Seiko for about double the regular price for a Seiko 5. He says the reason is that it's a Swiss movement.

The case back is not a view back like...

I guess I should mention that the hands DO appear to have a lume coating. :oops:
