Sorry I am out here again. I am just so happy about my Speedy ST145.022 from 1968.... I am actually looking for a older brother for him... A non professional variant. Have a really nice and well deserved weekend all of you Best regards Hans...
Thank you Art and team. I have mixed feelings about the Navitimer (too big for my taste) but I believe that is a nice watch for pictures. Wait for the next Friday. It will be a nice vintage. Cheers, Nilo

Hi Filip, Congratulations on the new Speedy. I have been away for a few days and am catching up, but its great to see this watch on your wrist and the wonderful wristshot with Buzz. Saved to my collection of Speedy Pro images! Andrew
Something very well legible at nighttime - due to nightshift again :-( Best regards, anaesdoc Sorry for the outdated pic, but I´m longing for summer and warmth!...
Weird weather today (HAIL in Southern California!), plus lots of work at the office, and an unsatisfying dinner have me out of sorts I think! Oh, well. Friday is upon us! Daos
It's always fun to get a new watch, but I'm a bit cheerier now after seeing a rainbow today and having a chocolate Frosty from Wendy's! It's the simple pleasures that make life worthwhile. Hope you've been well, Ronald. Cheers, Daos
thanks Jed. it was a risk as the strap came from the interweb and the watch was still being mended, but it seems to have worked quite well. best Graham
Hi Richard, That's the Arnold & Son Timekeeper I, isn't it? Good looking piece; I am a fan of marine chronometers, and I don't think I've seen this one very often. Can you share any more about your watch? I'm intrigued by the movement: is it an in-house, ...
Yes, it is the Marine Timekeeper I. The movement from what I have read and have been told isn't in-house, but is a Perret. However, I understand that Perret manufactures these movements for the British Masters exclusively and they collaborate on all their...
Hi I saw your post on your Nomos - the dial colour is fab. Yes you're right they do lots of limited editions I saw a Wempe one with a duck egg blue dial that look fab as well. Just had a look on their website & it looks like they've brought out something ...
. . . it's an individualistic design that I like tremendously. Eterna is the one of the rare manufacturers whose watches embody sensibility and character without going overboard . . . cordially, Art
Ginger and Art for your appreciation. The styling is a highlight for me, as is the size (36 mm) and relative chunkiness (8+mm thick) for watch of this era. -Tom
...thanks for the movement shot, Stefan, I always like seeing the insides, too. I see that it has the Enicar 1010 movement, with 21 jewels. Nice. Dr. Ranfft's database says this movement runs at 18,000 vph - classic, but Ultrasonic? Maybe just enthusiasti...
hi Tom, looking at the movement which seems like to be incabloc. but interestingly the dial was not signed with "incabloc". i have no clue to confirm that?! stefan
hi Ginger, very nice hi-beat Zodiac and it looks a Omega Dynamic. i have two hi-beat Kingline chronometer Zodiac, but they just have a normal look. stefan.
I admire your Enicar today. I have been a good girl lately and haven't been buying outside my collecting theme, but Enicar is one on my short list. I love the logo so much. The late 60s and early 70s designs are substantial, but in a reasonable diameter a...
hi Ginger, i also love the logo. i bought this watch when i have started my vintage watch collection about 2 years ago. i like this brand simply because it was a very hot watch brand when i was at my young age. their marketing was very good in Asia market...
I've had a couple of these Zodiacs, and if'n I didn't already have too many themes I'm chasing I'd be after the high-beats too. Happy collecting Mike aka Cazalea
no need to be sorry hans.! your Speedy is looking GOOD. drive safe ;0)) i'm sporting a Chrono here as well. (quick pick. sorry not so good.) good weekend to all Tony...
Hi cazalea, nice to spot another Sinn around here. Their legibility is really outstanding and I am thrilled by their no frills design. Greetings to the 656 from the 657 and best regards from me, anaesdoc...
