Happy Birthday, William! I sent you a crate of Lagavulin 1,000 years old....Here's a picture of the Gondolo caseback you requested yesterday but I couldn't post because it was night time when I read your post. The Travel Time, not this one, is the one with the see through caseback. I'll post that in a few days.  And here's the crown.  And the Pam Daylight is what I'm wearing today. The Gondolo is shown just for size comparisons. Both watches are on the same film plane so their dimensional comparisons are accurate.  Here's another shot.  Happy Birthday again, amigo!!! Fireworks tonight?? Last edited on Wed Jun 16th, 2010 07:25 am by bigrustypig |

Seriously, I saw Swiss trades giving less for that... So it's official, I am converted and this Seiko will have a standing place in my collectionhappy1.gif |

this is Awesome Will...Congrats!...I wouldn't consider a Seiko Premier a Asian watch.... although it is made in Japan it's in a class of it's own!. I agree on that Oscar...When we say "Asian" we think Chinese for the most. The Japanese quality exceed that and been exceeding them all in engineering since long. The Premier seems to be a very high grade and I've been reading people saying that this movement got his place among good ETA without any problem. Well honestly, just by looking very closely on it, a good eye can see the simplicity and strongness who makes a reliable movement. Time will show! For the watch case and dial : Whaoo...This is worked out... |
