Do you wear an old watch on occasion?
Personally, I wear a newer Casio, but occasionally I’ll wear an old beauty.
The old watches I wear are:
1960’s Hamilton Mechanical
1963 Bulova AccutronThe watch I need fixing is a
1982 Omega Constellation quartzCan you believe, total, I spent under $20 for these? I’m happy with that.
Share your pictures!
Surplus G1098 British Army issue watch, made in 1991 by CWC (Cabot Watch Company). Does exactly what it’s supposed to do; no frills, accurate, and practically bomb-proof. Best fifty quid I ever spent 😀
Yes: my late father’s (grandfather’s before him) Rolex. Just around the house for a few hours then back to the vault. When I do, I also carry my father’s Colt Agent. Carrying this combo allows me to channel living in MUCH simpler times.;)
I have a 105 year old solid gold women’s pendant watch that belonged to my great aunt. It only gets worn for formal occasions.

Looked the watch up.
Beautiful watch, it’s quartz, right?Yes. I on occasion wear this Zodiac SST 36000 which is a new purchase and an early 50s Omega Seamaster.

My one is, yes. Still looking for a decently priced mechanical version, mind. May have to bite the bullet and go and stump up the cash for a brand new one direct from CWC, though. Remember, if it’s mechanical, there’s no need for batteries in a WCS TARFU 😉Yes. I on occasion wear this Zodiac SST 36000 which is a new purchase and an early 50s Omega Seamaster.

[IMG]oh my… that seamaster is to die for.
make sure it doesn’t have radium, though.
Also love the design of the Zodiac. It looks really nice.1969 Doxa. I try to remember to put on a gshock for work, but sometimes I just have to go old school.

My watchmaker locally said there was nothing to worry about with the Omega thankfully. I absolutely love it. It took a while to get used to how small it was overall compared to some of my more modern diver style watches but there is nothing like that watch. I plan on wearing it at my wedding this year.I wear my grand father’s first Rolex from time to time. Model 6284 Oyster Perpetual. Silver dial, stainless steel case, bubble back. Still ticking strong after all these years.
