That De Luca is simply stunning.
My first Sinn, the 358 with mesmerising blue dial.
The pic simply doesn’t to the dial justice - one moment moody and dark, the next dazzling brilliance. I am blown away with this watch.

That is the perfect 103.
I’ve been wondering about the black version of this for my 2254. How easy was the fit?
Tease!
I have a WTB for one of these - just sayin’!
Picked this up from John Wall this week - great to have a 2254 back in the collection after 8 years. What was I thinking?

If it's the day / date movement is that not a 1260 calibre?

Thanks. Pm is waiting for you.
Sorry Carl, I've been away for a bit and missed this.
Here's a few pics of the Helvetia, taken by my nephew. Any information you'd be able to give on the watch would be really appreciated. I've...

Hi guys,
Hope you can help here.

Thanks for the comments guys
5711 LOL! I could chop in the whole collection and still not be able to afford one!
I’m surprised the new Seamaster Diver 300M doesn’t have more admirers....
Being far from the most prolific poster on the forum in 10 years of membership, I thought I would take a bit of time to share my SOTC and changing thoughts on collecting.

I also miss my Skyfall and IWC Mk XVI and...
Another Omega '53 fat arrow.
I inherited it from my grandfather and wore it during my attestation into the RAF - putting it back into the service.

Does anyone know if these straps in short supply? I ordered one when I bought a Seamaster back in October from WoS. It still hasn’t been delivered. WoS have been telling me they can’t get the buckle...
The Museum of Military Intelligence has a great collection on BRIXMIS (amongst others). Well worth a visit if you can get there.
