Depending on the style of the watch you're looking for you can also go, on the affordable side of the spectrum, for a seagull 1963

My wife's LIP. A vintage watch made circa 1952 with a R25 chronometer movement in a 18-carat gold case and an unbreakable mainspring made with Elgin (thus the Elgiloy mention on the dial). We found it here in France in a flee market for 5€ 😅 They surely did not know what they were selling!

The dial colour was not the one I thought it would be, but all-in-all it's not too bad for my first mechanical pilot-ish home made watch 😅 There is a clone of eta6497 inside, the st3600 from seagull. Quite accurate out of the box.

I'm currently considering building a bronze diver because I can't find something in my budget.

What wrist are you wearing your watch on?

Looking at my last post, you can see that my son, my daughter and I are wearing our watches on the right wrist. I know that most people were watches on the right wrist, but what about you?
