Nice Kontiki Bill, i had an israeli Military
contiki from 70's which was similar. it was the one with the numerals inset into
the lume triangles. the dial was better than yours looks but yours is an earlier
model i think. i used to have a link to a kontiki history page, but lost it and
cant find it again which is a pain as it was very informative. i also didnt keep
pics of the watch. there are several missing and that just happens to be one of
them. story of my life i think.

Its got to be friday somewhere so can i start with my new 'fun' piece
My Fortis IQ Rolf Sachs 'ART' edition arrived on wednesday and i've been wearing it ever since. its a very nice size at 40mm and comes on a 'bund' military style strap which is a bit unusual for an 'art' watch, but comfy to wear nonetheless. case is a nic...
Looks like they messed up on the 90 degrees

Hey Graham nice !! I just got this one for my brithday ! today
Hi Graham I just got this watch in time for my birthday... It is a uncommon Jumbo First Generation Kontiki Date ! from 1960. To be honest I have been looking for any first year Kontiki for a gift for my Dad ( but that is another story). I found him a watc...
Congratulations!
Beautiful watch with an equally imposing bracelet. I am myself hunting lately for what I think to be two unver-valued vintage gems - eventually I'll find the Kontiki and the Polerouter I'm looking for...
agree Both the UG and the Kontiki are classic
Hi Wooster My focus is really on vintage timepieces. i totally agree with on the Polrouter and the Kontikis. here is a Polrouter Super and a Polrouter Sub... and a bumper polrouter chronometre !! Thanks Have a great weekend! Bill Sohne...
Thanks a lot, Bill for these UG pics
Do you have my all time favourite, the UG Polerouter Sub with the Compressor Case??? Impressive collection, my friend! Best. Nicolas
One of my favorite versions of the Reverso, Nicolas . . .
. . . perfect in platinum with a grey dial, although I believe there's a slightly simpler version, too. The Reverso has perfect dimensionality and proportions . . . cordially, Art
You mean this one, Art?
Reverso platinum RDM, in the GT case, while the 70eme is XGT... Very nice, too! Best. Nicolas...

With a lot of help....

This old thing, because it goes with my instruments
Driving my old car with new watch on. I can't believe I have had this car for 15 years and (a) still running, no problems (b) not yet 36,000 miles (c) how nicely color-coordinated the instruments, watchstrap, and shirt (d) all the dust on the steering col...
Since the lead-off post included equations
How about the Equation of Time? Added bonus is that the EOT is getting close to its max (right now it's at about -15 min). Sorry for the image quality, but it's a difficult piece to photograph -- lots of shiny surfaces both flat and curved. HAGWE, Gary G...
Thanks, Nicolas
Of my watches, this EOT is the one that I would keep over all others. Best, Gary G
It's been the Karree Panodate all week . . .

Very interesting watch Graham.
If I don't do the math, I would be in a big trouble.. LoL Cheers
A new one, Krieng?
LOL, you're on a dangerous way, my friend... Seems that the Virus already cought you, and that it's too late ! LOLOL Very nice Vintage Sub, my friend... The Patina is stunning, the condition too! Wear it well! Nicolas
Same old patina.
Talking about the virus that spread all around the PuristS, give me more time to think that who to blame... errrr....all PuristS moderators!! LoL Cheers
Intriguing strap on the Panerai, Gazoz . . .
