Vintage watches are not (yet) mine.

But the one with 🐻‍❄️ and 🐧 are super nice 👏👏👏

awesome dials, beautiful straps

I love the design language of vintage watches, but I don't think I would ever own one because the cost of maintaining them is too high. My father is the vintage watch collector in the family and they're in a constant rotation for services at our local watchmaker. 😢

Wow, love them all, but the small second hand on square rolex is a detail that I would single out as the most beautiful, thanks for sharing 😊

I guess I am lucky to live in the country where yearly service costs as much as few new batteries. If you want , you can share pictures of his watches, I would like to see them 😊

The Darwil abd Pobeda catch my eye first out of the bunch, but the whole lot is a solid collection of vintage watches.

Thanks Petra! Your watches look great on those straps.

Recently I highlighted about ten vintage makers and their history on WRUW. Here are three:

I like small round thin watches. I like the 60s vibes. Obviously I like new watches wtih same attributes as well.

Big vintage fan here. I do wish servicing costs were more manageable though.

OMG they are all gorgeous 😍

Thank you! The Polerouter comes in 2 sizes. The black and gold in the 2nd picture is 35mm whilst the steel and the gold measures 33,5mm. I believe those would suit you just fine👌

They are all wonderful, and as I can see from pictures in a great condition. You are probably right, I have never tried 33.5mm, thanks for suggestion 🤗
