C3H5N3O9 is a horological experiment carried out by MB&F partners, Maximilian Büsser, Serge Kriknoff and URWERK founders, Felix Baumgartner and Martin Frei. The aim is to work together (and with...

The time on that photo is 8:28?

Has anyone else come across this watch?
Personally, I think it is brilliantly bonkers and am a bit smitten by it.
Given the fact that Felix Baumgartner was involved with its evolution, it should be...

and that strap is awful :icon_biggrin:

Has the OP confessed yet?

I wonder just how much they'd charge to "open it up and have a look" for the serial number for you?

Tesco's own Chilean Merlot is surprisingly drinkable.

They might have wanted to look a bit more grand for the mail order customers?

Yeah, i know...nice theory while it lasted!

This is a real long shot, but I'm wondering if perhaps the retailer was Gamages? They did call themselves the People's Popular Emporium, and ended up with premises in both Holborn and Cheapside...and...

It most certainly is food for thought. My money is on the movement serial being there somewhere, but not visible without embarking on scary stuff, ie under the dial.
I'd be very interested to know...

The rampant bear was in use between 1882 and 1934. Not much help, I know, as it is obvious that watch is earlier than 1934!

It's fairly unusual to find a case serial number that matches the one on...

Purely going by the Swiss markings, I'd say it's pre-1934. The number on the case is just that: a case number, not the movement serial number. I have heard that not all Omegas visible SNs, but have...

I grew up with a cracking view across the Tay Rail Bridge and remember watching these brutes trundling across the river.
Because of them, when I was 5, I wanted to be train driver. I got over this...

I'd like to see the other vehicle:" a micro tank - based on a tiny tracked dumper, but with a seat on it and hand controls "

Personally, I have a soft spot a mile wide for pocket watches, and I think that the money many of them make bears little relation to their true worth. As a result, so many are being sold just for the...

39 going on 15.

Hard to tell from the photo: is the movement signed or just the case?

Nice quality Swiss hallmarked silver case, with unrubbed machining and vacant cartouche.
I'm no expert, but it could well be...

Now to convert this into checklist format and I'll be noseying in SC in no time at all.

Welcome newbie, I'm new around these parts myself.

I live a couple of miles away from where the shootings occurred, and one of the officers was the friend of a friend. Local feelings are running very high, with many people calling for the return of...

Did you mean Untouchable? Or Intouchables, as the original French version was called?
If so, I couldn't agree more. I watched it twice, a week a apart, as I enjoyed it so much.

I have a brand new, but dead, First Capital Connect watch on my desk.
I can't decide whether to get a new battery for it, or chuck it in the bin.

Congratulations.

Mine was nowhere near as classy as most yours, but you may detect a theme.
