The Watch Appreciation Thread - Page 527

I like this, very nice Fifty Fathoms riff.

I wear it quite often.

Love it! Been dreaming of the blue dialed version, perhaps one from the seventies.

Well, that's a matter of definition...

please explain!

Agreed, that's why I bought the Skindiver the morning the shopping cart on the Helson site became live.

boy that pic's making me rethink bout the milgauss I got...

^i like that watch as well. which color way did you go for?

This



you need to read his auctions carefully. That is the person I bought my watch from

the Longines that I bought is all original everything (case, dial, movement), which is what attracted me to it

A lot of the watches have original parts, but the entire piece is not original
Example
http://cgi.ebay.ca/Jaeger-LeCoultre-...-/230617793885

Original Jaeger movement, but it's housed in a new custom case to convert the pocket watch into a wrist watch.
Also, the blue hands are new and custom.
The (seemingly) original dial was refurbished.


So you'll have to just read carefully and you'll find what you like

thanks, since these watch are quite old, how do they run?
