My 57 will be on holiday / vacation duties this weekend.

I’ve also got a Big Boy Avenger Blackbird Titanium & the Navitimer 806 Ltd Ed re-release from a few years back.

Nice watches😁

44mm Grand Turismo XL, it’s 20 years old this month and still running like a dream. Will be on my wrist the weekend as I head to France for a driving tour, perfect watch for the task, accurate, clean legible dial and with a vanilla scented rubber Dunlop strap.

I have been trying different combinations with the watch. So far, I took off the OEM as the deployant is less comfortable than tang buckles on my wrist. I am going to try some browns and blues next. Has anyone used non leather straps with this watch?

Pretty odd but cool watch here: a 1963 Citizen Ace "Great Wave off Kanagawa."  The Ace, launched in 1961, was part of Citizen’s early 60s 21-jewel, mid-grade, hand-wound lineup. Japan had been awarded the 1964 Olympics a few years earlier and this model specifically was built as a potential souvenir for the thousands of expected tourists. These Olympics, in part, involved massive Japanese industrial efforts by Citizen, Seiko (official Olympic timekeeper) & Orient to show new technological prowess only two decades removed from WWII. If you don't already know about the art on the dial, it's from 36 Views of Mount Fuji by Hokusai and is one of the most famous art pieces in Japanese history. The image STILL is on souvenirs. 😂

Love these two

I’ll have a thoughts on it in a little while

Happy Friday, everyone! Got the day started with caffeine and my GMT. what’s everyone else wearing today?

Quickly becoming one of my favorite GS references. Clean 3 hander, svelte for a 44GS, and a stunning dial with beautiful pops of gold. Recent pick up, I love this piece.

Seemed like a good day to take the dog for a walk. 🤷🏽‍♂️😉

Pics are of this piece are a challenge 😵‍💫 with the Hardlex, thinking about swapping for an AR sapphire crystal. Anyone here done that?

These are cherry shrimp, they match the BB perfectly
