First vintage watch

Nothing special, but i really like it. I put it on snk803 strap for now, that's all I had that fit. Someday I hope to be brave enough to try servicing them. Then I'm completely lost down the rabbit hole.

I Love that green dial! My list is too long so whichever one I get will really be a surprise

My list is short. That Marlin reissue or an Orion Hellcat in burgundy.

Lovely Timex! That dial is 😍! Not sure if you have seen it but @blackbookalpha posted this amazing recap of his comprehensive service of the same Timex model: https://www.watchcrunch.com/blackbookalpha/posts/1970-timex-viscount-restoration-service-207607

As noted in Alpha's amazing chronicle, servicing Timexes from that era is not for the faint of heart but definitely worth the payoff!

NICE!! Love those vintage Marlins! Timex has resurrected those indices on both their current Marlin re-issue as well as the new Marlin Chronograph (which is stunning BTW!) 👍 👍
