I'm lucky enough to have a nice example of a 1964 Accutron Astronaut GMT.
Without being too boring, it's a watch that bridges 2 huge interests of mine.
Wristwatches and Aviation.

The watch wears...

That watch really is a thing of exquisite beauty 🤩

Its a Monro Design Adventure for me today. A fairly decent Kickstarter GMT, albeit this is a rare 1 of 3, lucky red version.

HAGWE and enjoy it no matter how ye spend it....

Thank you, it's a 2185f.

Speaking of Blancpain Flybacks, here's mine on my 7.25" wrist. Its a 38mm but the lack of a tachymeter means it's all dial, and it is IMO a really nice dial....

My Blancpain 2185f today.

+1, posting a Ball, any Ball without a lumeshot? Should be a capital offence!

My Sinn 103 Military MkIV Destro.

The sales fee on Chrono is one of the reasons I'll contact an established dealer directly if they have something I like listed.
That said, if it's a private sale there? I'll do any negotiation and...

Oh I agree, as mentioned I usually give anything outside the Trinity a minimum 20% cut.


Fair point and I should have included it. I've not checked eBay directly in ages, using one the watch...

I know we are in the midst of quite a soft market.
That prices across the board have taken a tumble and that the reality of any "valuation" crumbles when it meets the market.

I usually use...

Really thought this was going to be about an ex-wife 😉😁

Not all variants of the same watch but, all Sinns. 2 U2 variants, a 103 Destro and a 104.
I'll likely end up buying more yet 🤣

That really is a cracking piece. Am I correct in thinking it's a 38mm case? Looks similar to a 2185f style?

I fully agree with you regarding the value represented by Blancpain versus Grey priced...

Plenty of European club rugby on tonight.
I'm currently watching Munster put Ospreys to the sword.

It's a Sinn 104 for me today👍

Thanks, I'll do a side by side comparison in the next few days and share them here.
The Red Ltd edition has some nice touches, a polished case and colour coded crowns are the main differences.

Newly arrived Monro Adventure GMT
https://i.postimg.cc/bYVMxRzX/IMG-20240314-194639.jpg

The Monro Adventure arrived this morning. The presentation box is nice, I like the passport gimmick, it plays well with their adventure/travel schtick.

I was lucky enough to win a raffle on their...

My Sinn U2-W after a little UV.

Thanks, I agree with you, they do seem to be quite a rare one.
Its one of the few watches I own that I actively went hunting for.
I am a fan of the Bond era wave dial, I much prefer it to the...

A GMT is my favourite complication.
I tend to set my 2nd TZ to NYC out of a habit developed for a job I no longer have.
2 mechanicals, 1 tuningfork and one Ana-Digi that is a bit of a cheat as a...

HAGW everyone!
On the wrist for the weekend, my Accutron Astronaut.
My son had this commandeered for the last 8 months or so.
36mm or so watches and vintage are surprisingly popular amongst him...

I can't remember if I posted previously about this incoming?
If I did? Apologies.

I backed the Monro Adventure GMT last October on Kickstarter.
I picked the Green/Black as my pledge.
The watch...

I've been pondering a Chronomaster sport for a while. I'd need to sell 2 or 3 of my current crop to manage it tho, and I can never decide what to let go.


Now I want 2 Zeniths, my wife won't be...
