    Many years ago I used to fly balloons in Stillwater.
    Hope you have a good time.

    When I was young, foolish, and struggling I used to tell myself I’d know I’d made it if I could ever afford the total luxury of a Rolex Submariner. (never mind a house or something smart like a reliable car; ah the naive thoughts from youth)

    Thanks to a ton of hard work, the love of a good woman, and blessings from God, I have quite a few nice watches. Often I will smile to myself and nod back to that young kid when I look at this watch; today I’m wearing a meters first 5512 from 1967.

    Interesting. My mistake.
    I thought they were studs in the 4100.
    Never owned one, but currently have two 25860st.
    Mine have studs.

    No sweat, I was not even aware that the screws were supposed to be aligned until it was pointed out to me on here. Interestingly, the original Genta drawings & design for the RO featured screws that were NOT aligned. It’s hard to keep up with.

    Very cool pair of watches you have there.
    Here is my bang around 16520

    Thanks Ron. I do too! It’s my daily watch and I’m glad to have it. Interestingly I purchased it when they first came out and the reception seemed mixed, so much so that I got a nice discount. Nowadays they’re substantially more and it seems there’s a waiting list for even these. My only slight regret is not buying the baguette hour markers as they provided just a hint of extra that really works nicely with the dial. A couple of guys on here have posted them and I still can’t help but drool.​

    Turning Japanese part 2, my every day watch.
    I once sold a 6263 Daytona for a nice price, bought two Japanese limited edition Seiko’s and spent the delta on my old Ferrari.
    The quality of the J Range watches, made in Japan not SE Asia is superb, and I don’t have to keep them in a safe to keep my insurer happy. I am pleased with the trade. I have a JLC for dressier occasions.

    I love the patina on this watch. Ferrari are there to be driven, watches to be worn ;)

    You Patek wearers are putting us commoners to shame! :cool:
    Any classic Calatravas out there? I'm on the hunt for a classic (but cheap) Patek, AP or Vacheron that needs some love....but not looking forward to overhauling their auto-thin movement - I forget that caliber number.

    Love the 16520, and the fact that this was followed up by the platona. I’m sporting the modern steel guy... Image Unavailable, Please Login
