“I prefer my 7548 to my automatic 6306, SKX007 etc, people forget that at the time, the 7548 was significantly more expensive than the automatic 6309.”

I was expecting a tutorial from the title, disappointed.
So this would be fractional ownership of an actual watch? Blimey, that’s brave, who sets the value I wonder?
My mum used to tell the family tale of when I was a babe in arms, I chewed off and swallowed the cardigan buttons of the lady that was holding me, she did eventually find them all.😁
I pass that every day, I’ve often wondered the same as you. 😁
Like with most collectible genres, 99% of that will have little to no value, but there could be that one gem, the first pressing, the obscure label, the low run that only a nerd will recognise, you...
Surely the CWC diver fits the spec?
We’re watching 1883 and really really enjoying it, really well made, gritty and full of drama, and I also feel a bit guilty about having a bit of a crush on the blond cowgirl. 🤠
Definitely the non power reserve one on bracelet.
Is the bracelet a NSA one? It looks like it, if so, it’s worth a few quid in itself.
The watch looks great.
To be honest Paul, in my experience they will fire up more often that they don’t, of course when they don’t it will be the old oil gumming up but I bet it happens less times that it doesn’t .
I have, that was strategically placed to see who would spot it.:nightmare:
The organisation for your spares puts my box of random stuff to shame :livid:
I have no idea what most of it is.

A wise man once said ‘it’s all about the spares’.
I have a box of spares, I’ll post a pic later but it’s not as organised as yours!
Possibly to do with grants, when Gigaclear were canvassing our area, the flyer said we had to express interest and register that so they can claim grants to progress, I’m speculating but they might...
Vodaphone, our BB provider has just sent us a plug in between the router and phone to use Voip instead of the BT plug, Ive not bothered, only one person rings the house number these days and that can...
Nice one, it will come fully charged.
Probably the cap, as easy to change as a regular cell, I did this a few weeks ago to a Eco Drive, I think you need a MT920 cap, about £20 on eBay, but do your research for the particular calibre.
It’s a watch one Marc, blade and case back lever, the blades have been battered a bit through poor sharpening but I’m sure I could make them look a bit better with some work.
More plausible than the Open University that was my thought.
Thanks Kev, I agree, nice little thing.
The GSTP came on a nice brass chain too.

Took a trip to a local antique fair this morning, found a few bits, nothing too exciting, the GSTP Marvin is pretty cool but the dial side is trashed, movement is super clean and its trying to run....
There are loads of aircooled parts specialists and restorers out there, parts supply is good and relatively cheap but most are now pattern parts as original parts are drying up. Mine has been garaged...
I have 77 bay window T2, had it for 13 years now, its been pretty reliable, its quite the experience driving it though, very fuel inefficient, noisy, slow as a snail, would be like a wet tissue in a...
Excellent! Well done, a great result.
