VINTAGE WATCH GENERAL

Aquired from late relative so probably around 1950/60s. Omega fixo-Flex think it looks pretty lit.

the old omega watches are so beautiful for some reason

i inherited one of these from my grandpa and have ever since been looking for the perfect omega wristwatch form the 50-70s

this one with the radioactive hands and good quality is what im looking for

According to a few forums and a bit of shopping about, as well as asking my grandad. Apparently my peice is from 1939, so honestly suprised it still works.

How much would one set you back?

tell me you got that shit serviced before letting it run. if not the parts are shaving metal filings into the case as we speak and you're ruining it.

Oh no I got it serviced don't worry.

Thoughts?

GFs father was throwing away a bag (literal garbadge bag) of watches today. currently going through them. its a junker but I like the bold numbers and the flex band.

...

Does the digimon come with it?

Some of mine on the watch tree I built.

Its a late 60s Glashutte GUB Spezimatic cal. 74. Probably the most horologically significant watch you can buy for under 400- this one is well worn and it was only 150 in an ebay auction

nice

XDDDDDDDDDDD

Yo, thats cool as fuuuu.. gonna make one too.

My god that's beautiful.

need me an old rolex explorer

had a pre-ww2 Vetta watch that my brother in laws grandfather stripped off a dead German at Monte Casino.

cant find an exact pic of it but it was very similar to pic related.

ended up selling it to a rare/vintage watch store in Lititz PA.

went back a few months after and he was selling it for 4x the amount he bought it from me for

Does anyone know where I can get a ww2 era Soviet watch, has to be legit tho and 50s and 60s is cool too

hey /vwg/, just bought me one of these, my first handwind (or any other) watch ever
how do I adjust time? it runs like 3 hours late

nvm, just found out

That's collectors for you, I have a large collection of original Billy bunter comics and the only reason I didn't sell them to him is I knew that would happen.

My god, even though it's you and not me, I feel like shit hearing this

ebay, you can find literal hundreds of '50s and '60s watches, most of them for pretty cheap too.

What is the watch in this picture?

I dont know if I would have sold it personally, sounds like an amazing tale to tell and have attached to the watch.
