Reply With QuoteWhat a surprise! Need to wear it more often then..
Good luck on the house move, did one earlier in the summer. Very stressful..
Currently in midst of a house move. Mega stressful with having to pack up the associated gubbins of four kids.
Not a relaxing time!
However, turned my attention to my watch shelf yesterday. Loads of old watch boxes and bits and bobs. Packing one Seiko box away and it felt a little heavy. Opened it up to realise I've got one more than I thought!
Made up for the packing a little bit!

Hope the move goes well.

Stay patient!Originally Posted by manganr
I've got a few but none are for sale at the minute. My main one is being used for a project. Once that's been finished, I'll keep a used one for spares and one of the NOS ones just because and flog the rest.
Won't be for a while though.
Going by a lot of sales posts, I thought it was mandatory for all paperwork and boxes to be lost during house moves.
Lidl Tea box?
Dave, such a nice watch and a great surprise! Quite reminiscent of some Sinns this one!

While packing to move house recently, I found a couple of truly awful Musical Fidelity watches I'd forgotten I'd ever bought. Not quite such a wonderful surprise.
My move is on Sept 1st - thankfully though i dont have to move everything in one hit as i moved out of the previous house on 23rd June.
There is however the storage unit to move to the new place and thats a LOT of stuff to get on the truck.. sadly i dont think i'll find anything watch related other than Jim's apple watch II box in there which I need to send him ! unbelievably patient man he has been with my house move after he bought the watch from me
I was going through some of my old boxes and was surprised to find a couple of BLNRs and a Daytona.
And then I woke up....
Finding watches you were unaware of, just laying around the house. That's definitely a sign of a problem :P
Indeed. Can't beat the old classics.
I thought you had a permanent project to acquire every Spork in existence?

Nice find Dave 😁 Good luck with the house move!

I never get how people can forget what watches they own!!! But either way great news it's like a new watch!!!

When you have as many Sporks as Dave has, it is easy to happen:-)
A rather nice find - hope the move goes well :)
Must say this is a rather nice looking Seiko Diver, surprised they no longer make this. Nice find.
You're not wrong!
Thanks all for the kind words.
It's bloody stressful moving house isn't it!!
Suits you, sir.
It is pretty mad. If they re-issued it they could make some changes that would make it an utter winner:
1. Sapphire crystal, preferably very gently domed on top.
2. Machined clasp on the otherwise excellent bracelet.
3. Upgrade the 4R15 to the 6R15 for handwinding/hacking.
If they do that, I'll buy three!!!
PS Dear Seiko, you can send my cheque now.
Be careful, it's so easy to Mis-place all the boxes and papers in a house move. It happens all the time!
Edit: just noticed it's already been posted!
I must admit I never felt this piece, I bought one and returned it after one week. The hype surrounding it must mean I was wrong!
They've reissued a couple recently so I'm hopeful. Possibly with the Prospex branding. Or a PADI one.
Moving is a major pain. Finding something like that is great. I've move too many times and rather than finding lost things I seam to be losing stuff with each move (thankfully) not watches.

Illness is the right word I believe. 😀

You know, re-reading this thread, I can remember there was a time long ago when he only had 5. I wonder how many more will turn up as the rest of the boxes are unpacked.
It's happened to me a few times, but less moving around and more tidying up the mess that is my closet!

Can't beat finding a watch you have forgot about, even more so when it's a spork!
Lidl tea boxes rock! Make superb strap boxes. Fabulous find by the way 😆
The only house move I like is a house move(ment)
