SOTC with a twist
My watch collection at the beginning of 2024 except we will focus more on the movements this time, since that is usually why I buy the watches in the first place😉.
Going from left to right in my watch box let’s get started with this fully skeletonized SW200.
A very common and reliable caliber that we all know and like.
Next ist this 1975 AS2063.
The movement Blancpain used in the seventies FF.
A nos Movement from 1975 that was bought and serviced by Zeno watch Basel to put it in this 150piece limited Series to homage the FF.
Arrogno Caliber 152.
Again a NOS movement this time from 1955.
Leaving Switzerland and moving over to Japan.
My recently serviced Seiko 5626 from 1977 that ticks happily away at 28800bph in my King Seiko.
And its little brother the 5606 from the same year coming in at 21600bph in my Lord Matic. This one is the next candidate to get serviced.
And last but not least a Seiko 7019A in my Actus.
I believe it was made in 1974 but I could be wrong there.
It is just a weird movement. Neither does it hack nor handwind, but it has the very necessary function of the crown also being a pusher to advance the weekday.🤣
As promised, here are the watches.
That is everything right now the rest was sold last year.
I have the phantom bleue from Spinnaker preordered and I am very excited for it.
Other than that I plan to buy only one watch this year.
It‘ll either be a modern King Seiko with the lavender dial, a Hanhart 417es reverse panda, or a Doxa Sub. We‘ll see.
If you have any other suggestions leave them below
Instead of reading boring stuff about me here, use the opportunity to look at a really cool picture of a Duck 🦆 🔝. I believe it’s a Mallard, but let me know if I am wrong.
Find a nice Felsa Bidynator, any brand.
Wow, nice collection

Yeah, they are cool.
I have seen them in Either in old Breitlings, Ulysse Nardin or what I consider random vintage eBay dress watches…😂
The first two options are too expensive and the third option is kind of meh unfortunately

I have Bidynators in an Enicar, Altus, and Bulova. I sold the random eBay dress watch (Ellis), so I know what you mean.
The modern King Seikos are real stunners, I got myself the tobacco brown dial but I can't recommend them enough. You can get them below retail fairly easily.
