What time is it? Watches and horology

Congrats, needs a daylight shot! Edit: I’m a slow poster, looks great.

Wearing my ‘69 Seamaster today, still in the same Cptn Birdseye jumper.

OP today, wanted to compare it to the GS and yes, the GS looks and feels every bit as special, if not more so. Still, no one can match the Rolex bracelet (especially the end links).

Chunky knit synergy

real nice

Both of those bracelet options look great, I'd probably lean towards the Holzer but that's only because I have the original 1171 already. I think the Speedmaster is one of the most versatile watches when it comes to straps.

Usual old watch day

That's lush, as they say in the valleys .

Still not sure what to do with this after I have paid to get it restored .
It does have a certain charm ......

I am not a big fan of newer seamasters but I really like that one . Keep and wear would be my view .

Would like to, but been offered this 1998 with an exhibition back to add to my moonwatch collection.

Do people not bother cleaning their watches before bringing them in for part-ex? Or… ever?

It is a bit manky .....
But hey more dirty , less money !!
