Let me introduce a new arrival in my collection. 1956/7 Timex Viscount made in G'T Britain. At 36mm I can see @NewbombTurk and @whystopatone rolling their eyes at me. Sorry guys, it has to be done.

Building qiute the collection of vintage now John. I love the story with this one and 36mm is a nice size 👌
Stunning piece, I love it. Reading your NWA, I hope it is keeping good time now ❤️
It's gorgeous. Congrats!
Very nice👌. These made in Great Britain ones were made in Dundee. I remember there being quite a violent strike there in the early 90s when the factory announced it was closing.

Thanks Chris. I'm thinking 35-36mm is my perfect size 🤓

Thanks, but unfortunately still gaining time. I was hoping it would slow down over night as the auto feature ran dow., but no. I need to get my thinking cap on and get the case back off 🤓
It's gorgeous. Congrats!
Thank you 🤓

You're right about the strikes. I really must do a write up about the Dundee factory history sometime 🤓
Thanks Chris. I'm thinking 35-36mm is my perfect size 🤓
It’s such a personal thing isn’t it but you are the only person that can say what your perfect size is 💯
Sweet sweet cherry 🍒
Beautiful pairing John. The red strap is so sexy!!
Congratulations John on the new vintage arrival! The red strap shows it off well buddy 👌. A great addition 🥂
😂😂😂😂 Thanks for the shout out John. I'll admit I was wrong. If all your new "small" watches are going to be this cool I won't be able to buy 2 for 1 from you based on size alone.
For the record. I think your new Timex is top notch. What's more classic than a white dial 3 hander with gold indices. Class everyday.
Now maybe when you get bored with your "big" Seiko divers like Lawrence was talking about you can pass one my way.
Have a outstanding day and better weekend my friend. 🥂
Beautiful ✨Timex John. Congratulations. 😀
It's really amazing what Timex has made if you really look.

Lol... Thanks, Craig. I'll keep you in mind if I'm ever feeling bored 😉

Thanks so much, Peter 🤓

It takes a lot of looking, Lincoln, but yeah, you're right 🤓
😂 I've got no problems with 36mm, John. I've got a couple myself. I wish I could pull off some of the smaller ones like you, but I'm just not that confident. This thing looks amazing, and I'm glad you got it up and running. 👌 That red strap in particular looks killer!

Thanks a lot Lawrence. You know best what looks good on your wrist but I know you could rock a small one.. maybe a dress watch for church? 🤔
