Picked up this magnificent SBGA407 from Wes on SC a couple of weeks ago, delighted with it

Not a new watch but a strap. Rubber B on the 116660 really changes the feel of it, love how the strap fits to the lugs.

Now the delighted owner of a Stealth-dinnerplate (48mm) - scratches the itch created by Longines ceramic Hydroconquest at 1/10th the cost:
How long before you sell it ?
Odd question on a forum where >£10K watches often don't seem to last 24 hours...
GL0098 - linky
It's better than I expected, given how dark it is, but it's neither especially bright nor terribly long-lasting: I walk the dogs for the second time after dark, and it was just legible after about 50 minutes of that.
It’s arrived

A cheap and cheerful pick-me-up arrived today
He's just a silly old soak who makes many imprudent posts and has been unduly obnoxious to numerous forum members. Best to ignore although not always easy.
It's nice to see some new arrivals in these difficult times and I love the 'Stealth-dinnerplate' description!

Ordered Sunday, shipped Monday and delivered (to NYC) on Tuesday. A wonderful addition and thank you for the excellent service Mr Platts!

New (to me) watch arrived today.
Just in from USA ,a 7546-6040
Precista PRS-82. My recent WTB didn’t elicit a response so I ordered one direct from Eddie last Sunday afternoon and it arrived today. I’d obtained one of the ETA 2873 versions as a trade late last year and ended up trading it shortly thereafter. I should have given it more time. Anyhow, I regretted letting it go.
The PRS-82 is a handsome watch that is solid and unpretentious. It’s also a lot of watch for £425. That’ll get you one of the non-date Hamilton mechanicals that I also happen to like (but don’t own), but not too much else. Or an entry level Seiko dive watch. Other than that you’re looking at fashion brands.
I’ve been looking at the MKII Paradive for a while, which is not too dissimilar to the PRS-82. Except that it’s a fair deal more expensive. $895 probably amounts to not much short of £900 when the poor exchange rate and VAT is taken into account.
This new arrival joins my CWC RN dive watch (quartz and non-date) and Omega FOIS. I do like a non-date black dial.
Saw someone else’s SOTC and spotted this, so ordered it with a decent discount.. 39mm version. Got to say I am very pleased

After foolishly selling my IWC 3719-33 chrono several years ago I was lucky to buy this 3538 from Nick which is in remarkable condition for a watch that is over 12 years old. Unbelievably light and comfy on the rubber strap and spotless after a light wash and clean.

Hamilton Khaki Air Race H76535131 - Arrived earlier and straight off the bracelet and onto two-tone Perlon:
Loving the inset-applied indices, and the 80-hour movement's a boon. 42mm, but definitely wears bigger.
Tudor Sub, in great shape.

Very pleased with this and feels great to finally have an EZM1 back in the collection.

Arrived this morning c/o this forum's @Wooster and I am in
Why anyone would prefer an MM300 is beyond me - but each to his own!
