    One in, one out . . .

    It's very rarely I sell a watch, but it made sense that when I added a different style that I'd wanted for a while (PRS-68 ) then one of the Everests should go. A pal bought the 40mm, and the picture below is what I now have. A nice spread of styles and sizes to give an almost "new watch day" feel to a change in the rotation. They are all worn.






    Edit. Forgot this one . . .

    That is a lovely collection, not a single watch I wouldn't enjoy wearing personally, and a nice spread of styles without being gratuitous.

    I’m going to quote you as I was thinking the same thing.

    Got to agree with the above, superb collection.

    I think you need to sell more watches, especially if that Precista to the bottom right is from ‘84

    Thanks gents! The Precista is indeed an issued 6BB from 1984, the CWC to it's left is an issued W10 from 1983, and the third is one I bought as a work watch new from Silvermans in 2004, it was why I arrived here to ask advice. Coincidentally I bought the Datejust new in 1984.

    Is the unbranded W10 in the top corner a CWC?

    Sadly not. :-( It's a cheapy manual winder I bought years ago to try the style. Decent quality though, and having dug it out for the main picture I'm wearing it as I type.

    It was seeing a pic or two of your PRS-5 on the Friday Thread over the years that prompted me to start looking for one last year. There's a seller on ebay that's had one for ages (still up for sale!) but he was rather vague about the timekeeping, and apart from the fact he was asking strong money I also know the movement's obsolete, so I reluctantly decided to steer clear. Yours looks great on that strap.

    That’s my thought, looks like one to me.

    Does it have 6bb marked on the case back and a mix of font types for the NSN?

    Sorry chaps, but it really is a cheapy.

    You can see why we would have thought that…
