Nobody answered the WTB I placed for one of these last December so I found a retailer who still has them in stock. I don’t recall seeing another one here.

Gonna go with this. Happy to be proved wrong if anyone else has one but I suspect not. Not everyone's cup of tea I am sure, but it has a lovely enamel dial in the flesh with a kind of mash up pocket watch/Speedy feel.

Many many many moons ago I interviewed Roger Black who was wearing this exact watch. I've never seen one before or since and for a while I was hunting for one but gave up as I didn't really know what I was looking for. I'd forgotten about it until this second, seeing yours, and it's reminded me how much I enjoyed seeing it that day. The Olympic rings on the end of the second hand really did it for me then and still do. Enjoy and if you ever fancy selling let me know. I might be keen.
If you can find this elsewhere I’ll eat my watch strap.

Straton from the USA
My late grandad's watch. Circa 1961-62.
Serviced by Richard Askham some years ago. I don't wear it, but it's nice to have it running again (needed a new mainspring).

I have this one I picked up a few weeks back from a small watch shop in the centre of Bristol.
Great place with loads of vintage watches.
Citizen 4-310055y Alarm Date watch from 1969.

Not seen one on the forum before.
Although vintage, it's still a great size at 42mm

Neither was I until about a month ago.
It's this one: https://german242.com/en/main/shop/
Fascinating shop. Stock on the website is rarely updated so definitely worth visiting. Ask about his skull watch it's super cool

It makes sense that an Olympian would have one I suppose, perhaps received as a sponsor gift, but as you suggest these were not big sellers it seems, over here at least, mine was originally supplied in Japan. I'll certainly bear in mind your dibs if I move it on, but have no plans to do so just yet. Thanks for the kind words.
Reasonably confident I have the only working one.

Pretty sure it’s the only one as the company went pop before they could complete the orders that were paid for :(

Not that uncommon, but I’ve not seen another on the forum that I can remember.
It satisfies my blue dial fetish nicely…

certainly not a "me too" watch :0)

Corum Anniversary Quarter Minute Repeater by Christophe Claret
Neither are as, er, esoteric as some in the thread here but don't think I've seen either of these apart from mine:
1) IWC Ingenieur Titanium Double Chronograph:

2) Ulysse Nardin Marine Torpilleur Military Chronometer (LE of 300):

My photos just don't capture the subtlety of the eggshell-enamel dial and light brown filling of the numerals, here's a better pic, though not of mine:

Don't know .. probably?

Had this since 2000 or so. It can display the time in "Internet Time", a sort of decimal time notation introduced in 1998, which never caught on. It's @374 at the moment.
I don't think I have seen another on here. One of my favourite watches.

Not rare but bit marmite. Good watch though.

Panerai 799. I wear it more than any other. Not seen another on here.
Anyone else got one of these bronze Charles Darwin Aquatimers?
https://i.ibb.co/StQFcHm/IMG-2904.jpg
Perhaps these 2, both from Pops - the Cellini for my 50th and DeVille when he passed last year.
