Any watch lovers here????

Ill give you Tree fiddy for it.

And a case of PBR. And a GBH cassette.

 

Because Tuesday.....

 

Almost have me giving up my dream of getting a Daytona.

 

I'm thinking of resuscitating my old Seiko Sportura Honda Racing edition. I haven't worn it in probably 8 years.
What do you guys think ?

 

What's wrong with it?

 

Nothing, it just needs a battery. I just had 5 other more recent watches so it went into retirement. Oh, and Honda stopped doing F1 lol. I just saw a NIB one just like mine on eBay listed over 1000$...

 

Maybe the pay is better in cycling....

Also because Tuesday.

 

How are watch values nowadays in the post-COVID world? I'm thinking about unloading some, but not at a loss.

 

Oh, for sure put a battery in it and wear it. I thought "resuscitating" meant real work.

 

They didn't seem to dip. I think there is a little more dealer availability on some of the hard to find new watches, but not much different.

I know there are a few of us who'd like to see what you have for sale.

 

I'm thinking about unloading my baby Speedy (3539.50), it's the automatic one that's 2mm smaller in diameter. It's the later model that's sapphire instead of acrylic.

They've been popular in Japan, less so here. I think everyone here still aspires to the moonwatch-spec.


This guy:

 

I'm really digging this one from Island Watch. Not as nice as some of the Tuesday watches being posted but the price is right and I really do love the Seiko SKX!

That's kind of a moon watch though.

By that I mean if you were on the moon you could see that yellow dial with some cheap binos.

 

Is that the same case and crown as Seiko e.g. SKXA35 but with their own movement?

 

I was worried I would regret it soon after purchase, as is so often that case when venturing into something new. I'm happy to say it couldn't be farther from the truth......the more I wear it the more I love it.

 

I’ll play as well since I finally got my leather strap for the Tudor.

 

Yes, I believe so.

 

I wore the Datejust 41 today. I hardly ever wear it, but I love this watch.
