Unusual watches

What is the most unusual watch in your collection? For me I must say that it’s my automatic Festina chronograph. Now more known as a fashion brand Festina has a long history and this is running a valjoux 7750🤩

That Festina is a beauty. My most unusual is probably my Vilhelm Prism.

My ministry of silly walks watch though I have a couple builds in the works that might take the lead.

Rado Dual Timer - Look Ma, no crown. It’s set by a pattern of touches on the sides of the case. Simple looking, easy to read, but secretly complex!

Great watch “This morning, shortly after 11am, comedy struck this little house on Dibley Road. Sudden, violent comedy”

An excuse to show these:

Image

Chaika Stadium 1970's. This is really a very conventional automatic with a two part case. The wide part (44m) disconnects from the rest. Unfortunately, this means a little paint loss with every service. Many of these were made in a gold plate with a gold bracelet. Those are dialed to 11.

Image

Voumard 2000 1970's. This is a back winder with a short flat crown that fits snugly on the back of the case. It has a unique quickset. If that wasn't unusual enough the entire watch is modular. The crystal and case are one piece that detaches, intact, from the case.

My most unconventional watch is this Seiko ana digi.

It’s a pocket watch but can be worn on a nato strap aswell.

Very cool! What’s the size? Did you have that converted yourself? Story time.

I have not measured it. I purchased it from a watchmaker in England. The 'Donor' watch was new old stock so he started making them into wristwatches..I have never worn it but when I saw this posting this morning..I remembered I had this in the safe..Its pretty wild

My most unusual watches would have to be the Humism Dasein with the mesmerizing dial (shown at 2:25)

and the wandering hours Phantasos Triclops (shown at 12:16)
