Chilling out with this 'rare' Seiko Marinemaster,
No 'x' on the dial here :-)
I do much prefer the more creamy lume of these 001's rather than 017's. This one is from 2001 so a very early one.
Nearly April and still having to put the log burner on, roll on spring.
Have a good holiday all (assuming you're not working of course).

Still wearing this one which arrived earlier this week. The dial is amazing !

Thanks. At 36.5 mm, just a bit small by today's standards and hence it will be leaving the 'stable' shortly. But, one of the most beautiful chronographs of all time IMHO

Sorry for the double post, what’s the 0-20 scale running inside the tachymeter for?

[QUOTE=greenandblack;4719762]It is a telemeter scale...By means of the telemeter scale it is possible to measure the distance of a phenomenon which is both visible and audible. The chronograph hand is released at the instant the phenomenon is seen; it is stopped when the sound is heard, and its position on the scale shows at a glance the distance in kilometers or miles separating the phenomenon from the observer.
Hi, if memory serves, it is a Baume et Mercier Capeland - I had a version of the same watch for a while.

Have a nice weekend!
Yes you are correct Valjoux 7750 at the time it was new if cost the same as a submariner!

Thanks both. I like the look of it and noticed it has a similar look to the Tissot I posted earlier in the thread, even if the Baume et Mercier is a step up in quality.
My Tissot has an ETA 251.272 quartz movement which I think I read once was designed to match the form and function of the 7750. Perhaps someone at Tissot was ‘inspired’ by the B&M.
[QUOTE=cirotti;4719777]Thanks Cirotti and Caruso. Sounds a much more stylish (and accurate!) version of when you’re a kid counting between lightning and the thunder
That's beautiful.
I appear to be spending Easter in a connectivity-free zone - no real chance to get online yesterday.
In the Sotadic Zone, apparently.
100% original Record www Dirty Dozen. Just been fixed and serviced. It comes with a good story about the war and tears from a family member when it was sold but who knows what the real history is.
I just love these military watches. Thanks goes out to all that had them on their wrist in the war.
A keeper for sure.

Where is that from, not original so some sort of modern copy?It's been a G-Shock week, but I fancy a change, my Smith's 29B on Nomos Horween. Have a fine weekend!
I’m in love with that Whitebread.Not worn anything else since this landed about ten days ago. Still no inclination to change it, either.
