Longest build to complete

Ordered this case back in April, the delivery company lost it, and I had a right hassle with the seller. Managed to get a refund eventually, and today it turned up out of the blue, after thinking it was never gonna be seen again.

I'd already put the movement and dial into another case, because I didn't want to use that seller again, and couldn't find a lot of options for a similar looking one, I was pretty happy with that replacement and have enjoyed that watch, but this is the finished watch I planned on completing, so I did a quick case swap, and finally got it done.

I'm sure we all hit struggles at time with our builds, so keep going, there's always the option to resolve and sort the issues out, and to get there in the end.

A fortnight ago, I had no Timex watches, now I've got two Timex watches.

Picked up the Velocity the other week, and just picked up the World Timer to go with it.

Picked up a Bond watch today

The reissue of the Seiko that Roger wore in the Eiffel Tower scene in A View To A Kill. Even though it only makes the briefest of appearances, and is more commonly known for its association with Arnie, and his movie, it's always nice to have that Bond connection.

Can't beat new watch day.

Been holding off on the Arnie for a while, but as they are getting discontinued, I couldn't resist any longer, and had to pick one up. Taking it out for a trek today

My First Timex

New to me 1971 Velocity reissue. First Timex I've owned, but loved the style of this one, so for £70/$94 I didn't have to think about picking this one up. Really happy with it, in mint condition and love the vintage looks

What's everyone wearing today?

Trying to convince myself not to buy an Arnie this weekend, by wearing one of my builds.
