Bought this lovely Heuer Pasadena earlier this year. Genuine 1981 model, made for only one year with these sub-dials - and in PVD Black.

Now for sale as I'm after another Panerai.

Which one are you going for Lee?

These Grand Seikos are really growing on me.

Not the usual cliche brand. Understated and classic.🤒

Classic or old?

This thread reminds me - somewhere I have a swiss made TD jump hour watch that was my dads.  Fully working (last time I looked at it)  but I have never found the exact one - it is rather like this, but it has a sweeping second hand as well.

Some general images here.   

 

Are these a 70's quirk, like quad sound, or considered decent watches?   A quick  peep on ebay has apparently similar devices selling for under £100 to £800 or more.

Since leaving primary school in the 1970's, I have never taken to habitually wearing a wrist watch.  I had a childs timex, and was given a watch when I left a job in the 80's but its probably 30 years since I bothered wearing a watch. 

Not sure why, but they don't appeal.

Thanks. Certainly not an everyday watch, but how could I resist adding to my collection the same watch that Marilyn Monroe infamously gave to JFK?

Hi, how happy I found this discussion group. I'm lucky enough to buy a Bang & Olufsen watch and maybe someone here in this forum can know something about this watch. Most intrassant to me is how many are made and what year.

 

Because no information is found anywhere

Even on www there is nothing 

 

Best regards

Jan
