 I am a auto mechanic of 30+ years that doesn’t always look “presentable“. When stopping for a cold one after work I may get a comment on my Rolex 14060. This watch being one of, if not the most iconic looking watches made, people notice. It is usually ”is that real”? This is when I push the caste that person sees me in aside, smile and politely say yes.

Thank you it took some work to get it keeping good enough time to be practical. couple minutes fast in 24, not bad for what it is

Thank you, I am having fun with the Mickey. Yes they are getting rare, this one like most was not running. After tearing down cleaning and oiling it runs fast. Ha I guess it was never meant to be serviced. Sad that most on eBay say they are 1933 and non are as they are even more rare, would love to find one

I am with Blue Dial love the Pelican Case. They come I’d different sizes some with two layers of foam so you can stack, water proof and lockable.

commented on Orange or Turquoise? ·

Ha it looks like orange is a clear winner so far. I am with turquoise as it is a bit more subtle

Benrus made 3 different models in 1957-58. They are pretty rare but you can find them on eBay at times. Problem is they are usually overpriced in my opinion. Two on eBay (in the USA) now
