Sorry guys, no shinny new toys here. Just three watches I can't seem to ever let go for different reasons.


First up, my dad's 50 year old Omega. Given to him by my mother as a wedding gift. Something of a family heirloom now. never serviced in 50 years, consistently losses 3 seconds per day to this day. WOW!

This was bought back when I was still in school, when the other kids sported digital Seikos I wanted an analogue swiss watch. Guess you can spot the snobs early on :lol: Survived some tough times and still looks new. Quite tiny on my wrist.

And here we have this Swiss TT watch, a local airline hosted a math competition over 15 years ago and I think someone reversed the marks as a joke so i got this as first prize.

Well there you go, three watches I almost never wear but which all have some sentimental value.
