I’d trade all of mine for that 9F quartz. Stunner of a watch.

Love GS watches, I had a Skyflake for a couple of years but sadly I never wore it, loved the watch but it was too flash for me. But my wife currently owns a GS Gekka moonlight and it a very subtle lovely watch.

I would have another GS quartz but really want one without a date if possible.

one day they will make my ideal watch…

Yep.. chuffed to have recently found an unworn OEM leather hybrid strap to replace its previous version, which had definitely seen better days..

I do love it also.. the taupe colours and the burnished patina are just so subtle

“It’s a quartz Jim, but not as we know it” :joy:

I was lucky to find it tbh. They seem to be more available in the far East

My collection, all regularly worn

The OC Anniversary watch had an outing last week at the National

Only purchased the Casio recently, a modern recreation of the exact watch I was wearing in the 70’s

:+1:t3:It is indeed.

Great to finally see a Zodiac, here’s one of my 11 from the 1940s.

I’ve been collecting for 20+ years fascinating things watches are, I wear a different watch everyday.

Great thread this :clap:

Loving that Zodiac
I have a Zodiac with “floating hands” and a red dot that “flots” around for the seconds.
I haven’t worn it for a while, but i shall have to now you have reminded me.
Great watch you have :grinning_face:

This is a photo of a “Buren”….. similar in appearance to one my father had. He always wore it when I was growing up, and I was dismayed to find it in a bit of a state whilst sorting out Mum and Dad’s house after the death of my Mum, and significantly after we lost Dad. It looked like it had been stepped on, and the winder was missing.

I found a guy who specialises in fixing old watches. He finds old damaged watches and reuses obsolete parts.

He’s had Dad’s Buren for over a year now, and just contacted me to let me know he now has everything he needs, and will complete the work “as soon as I can…….”

Not good to rush these guys- but I can’t wait.

Yes great to see some Zodiak watches, they really do put in so much great detail for relatively modest costing watches.

Here is mine, it one of my absolute favourites & gets a lot of wrist time. I particularly love the retro Manta shape, textured green face & 2 O clock crown.

That’s really rather lovely… the Field Olympos? superb colour and finish…

Yes, Field Olympos, I am informed the original versions were issued to RN officers in the late ‘60s, which, if true, is a nice back story.

Increasingly lusting after a titanium Citizen ‘The’ Citizen. High accuracy quartz is my kink. I want my watch to be as accurate as possible.

My modest collection

Accurist, Lorus, Lorus, Pulsar

Garmin, Sekonda, Garrard, Gucci, Victorinox

Garmin is my working on the MX-5 piece and the Victorinox my daily.

The Pulsar in particular caught my eye. Sometimes less is more.
