Heuer 2446
Another purchase from Nic for this 3rd Execution snap-back cased Autavia and another manual Heuer. In very nice condition, this gets a lot of outings for work. Mounted on one of Abel’s replica corfams. And probably the photograph that I'm most happy with!
City Professional
I’d had this for a short while before from Daniel on a trade that got reversed. A while later, he offered it for sale and I couldn’t say no. A lovely combination of an 844 type case and Jenny yellow sparkly dial from this little known brand.
Heuer project
This has been assembled from various parts collected over a period of time. I need to have a go at colour matching the hands, but I doubt I’ll ever wear it as this case size is just a bit too small for me.
Vostok Holiday Beater
I’d owned an 090 case watch before and fancied another one, but specifically wanted a white dial. This is combination of a dial and movement from a 100 cased watch, an 090 case from Zenitar, a Boris bezel, a Dagaz insert and a NOS 22mm Tropic. I think all the bits cost double the amount of the original watch, but it got the desired result.
Vostok 710SE
Filling the gap until an all-lume Heuer 844 shows up! The OEM rubber strap is surprisingly comfortable.
Lemania ‘Silverstone’
I’d been on the hunt for one of these, specifically Lemania branded and with the blue Herringbone dial. It arrived from Sweden last week, but unfortunately looked like it took a knock in transit that seems to have misaligned a couple of hands. It’s currently with Rich to hopefully sort out, but I took a quick snap before sending off.
It’s got a NOS 22mm tropic waiting for it on return.
And finally, the other half’s Heuer collection (as it helps me to indulge myself without too much flak!).
I’ve met some really great guys through the forum and have witnessed some really inspiring acts of generosity and camaraderie in my time here (as well as some utterly incomprehensible behaviour from some utter bellends). It takes all sorts!
I hope you’ve enjoyed my short journey!
