Mine is a hand-me-down, too, Alex . . .
. . . purchased in late '65 or early '66 according to Pops. It had never been serviced and was still running, but apparently had a great deal of wear and in dire need of an overhaul. The watchmaker had to add an extension to the case wrench in order to unscrew the back . . . the gasket had decomposed, so the back was 'frozen' in place. All is well now, though, and I've been enjoying it almost nonstop for the last week . . . cordially, Art

I love this watch! I'll be curious to see if JLC...
...creates a new iteration of it for their collection. Cheers, Daos
The Navy Seals Alarm, Daos.
It may be considered as the one which replaces the MC Memo. Best, Nicolas
But it is an LE, right?
Do you think there will be a regular production version? Cheers, Daos
Right, Daos
That's why I wrote " It MAY be considered ". This is a LE of 1500 pieces, which is a lot for a LE. My guess is that I don't see JLC introducing a current production in a close future, because the NSA is here, and it would be a bit risy to double the offer...
Yes, I do think you are right.
The NSA will serve in the Memovox's stead for now. Still, I'd love to see an homage to a vintage Memo, maybe in a fun color combo like your Speedbeat. Time will tell, I guess. Cheers, Daos
Aaah, in this case
This is totally different.... Here again, this is just my guess, but this is a pity that there is no dressy Memovox in the catalogue since 2006 ( Master Reveil ). I can't imagine that JLC won't release another Dressy Memo. Yes, it would be great to see a ...
Just got out ...
... of my bed ... and seeing your PP gave me a slam on the head ... ... Nice one Quan. Ill be wearing a Seamaster today. HAGWE everybody. Filip...
Actually ...
... it's a SM 30, very simple .... but it really needs a clean-up and service .... i'm just to lazy to send it to the watchmaker ... Filip
nice Filip, but you are right, it could do with a glass polish if nothing else
i have the perfect man for the job as you know. best me
Patrice, please dont do this to me. i want one so much and you tease me :)
i think it is possibly one of my most attainable desirable watches. best Graham
Sweet!
Any man wearing this watch becomes at least 30% sexier IMO. Horological catnip for girls like me! Thanks for sharing! Great pictures too! Cheers, Daos
He He, Ryan!
Nice choice, for a great Week End! Didn't remember that you also have this one! Best, Nicolas
my newly refurbed 1964 SM300 on Cordovan for me
this is my new baby. purchased in poor cosmetic condition with the intention of a full refurb as i already have 2 1964 sm300's in original condition. it came back in 'as new' condition and pressure tested to 30m which is more than enough for me. it would ...

thankyou my euro friends. i'm looking forward to getting it underwater.........i think. i must watch what i post as i wanted my 4000th one to be special and preferably on my 3 sm300's, but i'm very close and still waiting for my nato strap to arrive. perh...
thanks Quan, its turned out...
thanks Quan, its turned out very well compared to the 'before' pics. watch out for a post on my 3 sm300's in the near future. best Graham
Nice strap and watch
The cordovan strap will get an even nicer patina when you use it for a couple of weeks. Its scratch easily, but the scratches are also easy to buff out. And it smells better than any other types of leather.
you need to check out...
you need to check out my sm300 post of a few weeks ago where i've added my impressions of the strap. i described the smell as very sexy. i love fresh leather smell. i look forward to seeing it age. best Graham
thanks Kit. look out on...
thanks Kit. look out on the Omega forum for a review of my 3 sm300's. i'm just waiting for a strap to arrive before i do it. best Graham
Congrats, Graham!
Wow! That Seamaster is looking good! I see you sprung for the cordovan. Well done, man, well done! HAGWE! Daos
A very nice Sub, Kit.
This transitional has a charming patina! Thanks for sharing this Beauty. HAGWE, Nicolas
I'm glad you noticed
I'm very happy with the patina. All the hands, dial, and pearl match. I think there is a lot to be said for the transitional 16800, as you alluded to. Thanks and HAGWE to you too, Nicolas.
Look at that gorgeous vanilla patina on those markers!
Great watch, my friend! HAGWE! Daos
One of my favorites...
Makes me feel like I have an Observatory on my wrist. HAGWE! -- Richard. Please note: Not my photo....

A Vampire watch. Once on the wrist, it is painful to take it off... Best, my friend. Nicolas
And the good thing is, Quan
That It is still a dream watch, after a 2 Years Love Story! Yours is not bad, either! ) Best. Nicolas
I would have thought a Reverso for the Polo fields, Vlad...
...but that old thing is nice, too. LOL. Beautiful as always! respo
Not a Vintage, yet, but almost! :)))
The " New " Thing ust arrived, but I'm waiting a bit before the ...Share. Mwaaaaaaaah. Vlad.
Vlad -- what are you doing out in the sunshine? :-)
A day at the races? Did you win any money? I love horse racing! Although, I'd say I love your MMR more! Oh, Nicolas, (slightly off-topic) do you think we'll see live pictures on the site of the new JLC Grande Reverso 101 Art Deco sometime soon? I'm dying ...
My nights are longer than yours Siiister
And a sun bath every century is not bad for my Health... Not horse racing, I'm too mad for that as I would bet my house...But I was invited to the Finale of a Polo Game. Will see what I can do for you, as for the Grande Reverso 101... Best, Siiister. Vlad...
